The Abdulaziz Khan Madrassah in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. This old, sandblasted madrassah, built originally in 1652, has been restored and repainted many times. The most recent paint job on this colorful gate dates back to 2003, when Justin Timberlake was still a member of 'N SYNC.

The design of this carved door reminds me of a pomegranate, one of the common symbols in Uzbek embroidery.
Verinag is towards the end of the Kashmir valley not far from the Banihal Pass. The Mughal Emperor Jahangir built a palace and garden here, he wrote.... 'When I was a prince I had given an order that they should erect a building at this spring suitable to the place. It is now completed. There was a reservoir of an octagonal shape...Round halls with domes had been erected and there was a garden in front of them ...round the reservoir was a stone walk...'
Today only the octagonal reservoir with its stone walkway and arched recesses is left of what was the fountain court of Jahangir’s palace. Inside some of the recesses are small flights of steps which must have once led to rooms above, and there are the remnants of some finely carved stone brackets jutting from the wall which may have supported balconies. Two original stones, inscribed in Persian, are set into the wall along the walkway – one gives the date of the building, 1609, and the other tells the name of the builder, ‘constructed by Haidar, by order of Jahangir’.

Bayt Al-Suhaymi ("House of Suhaymi") is an old Ottoman era house museum in Cairo, Egypt. It was originally built in 1648 by Abdel Wahab el Tablawy along the Darb al-Asfar, a very prestigious and expensive part of Medieval Cairo. In 1796 it was purchased by Sheikh Ahmed as-Suhaymi whose family held it for several subsequent generations. The Sheikh greatly extended the house from its original through incorporating neighbouring houses into its structure.

The Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque is considered as one of the most beautiful mosques in the Asia Pacific. This mosque is named after the 28th Sultan of Brunei, Omar Ali Saifuddien III, who initiated its construction and is considered as the Sultan who brought Brunei to its glorious days.
The mosque, finished in 1958, is a great example of modern Islamic architecture, which shows a mix of Mughal and Italian Renaissance architectural styles. Today it stands as a dominant icon in the city of Bandar Seri Begawan –capital of Brunei– and serves as one of its main attractions.

The interior of Umamayad Mosque is as beautiful as the exterior. I love the way lights are played in this interior, not just the mechanical lighting, but also the natural lightings from the outside through the stained glass.

Mubarak Mahal, meaning the 'Auspicious Palace', was built with a fusion of the Islamic, Rajput and European architectural styles in the late 19th century by Maharaja Madho Singh II as reception centre. It is a museum; a fine repository of variety of textiles such as the royal formal costumes, sanganeri block prints, embroidered shawls, Kashmiri pashminas and silk saris as part of the Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II Museum. A noteworthy display here is of the set of voluminous clothes worn by Sawai Madhosingh I, who was 1.2 metres (3.9 ft) wide and weighed 250 kilograms (550 lb) but interestingly had 108 wives.

Known to locals as Sultanahmet Camii, the Blue Mosque is one of Istanbul's great tourism draw-cards. Built between 1609 and 1616, the mosque combines Byzantine elements with traditional Islamic architecture. Depicted here is the central dome, which is surrounded by some 28 windows.
