The customer's attention is distracted by a police stop of a young guy on a bike. I took some photos of that scene and may share one of them later.
The Diwan-i-Am (Hall of Public Audience) us where the Mughal emperors presided over court and conducted state business. The vast royal compound in Agra was founded in XVI century by the Mughal emperor Akbar who transferred the capital of his realm to Agra, expanded subsequently by Jahangir and Shah Jahan. It is much better preserved than its namesake in Delhi, but most of it is occupied by the military garrison and is off limits to tourists.
В Диван-и-Ам (Зале Публичных Приёмов) падишахи председательствовали в суде и вели государственные дела. Обширная резиденция падишахов в Агре была основана в XVI веке Акбаром, перенесшим столицу Индии в Агру, расширона и достроена Джахангиром и Шах-Джаханом. Агрская Лал-Кила сохранилась на порядок лучше одноимённой крепости в Дели, но бОльшая её часть занята военным гарнизоном и туристов туда не пускают.
I've always loved the profile of this pointy rock at Ramshaw. It had more white lichen on it than I had remembered it having when I lived in these parts. Wish I had had time to meet up with friends, but I easily forget people have jobs to do. A hot mug of coffee and a natter would have been nice though if I had been welcome

La nécropole de Shah-i-Zinda, à mes yeux le lieu le plus fascinant de Samarcande. Aussi fastueux soit l'ensemble des mosquées du Registan, c'est tellement touristique et mercantile que l'émotion n'avait pas été au rendez-vous. C'est dans cette nécropole que je l'ai ressentie.
The Shah Alam Mosque located in the Shah Alam. I was there with Ariffin yesterday.
Note: I'm rushing to my in-laws now, so have a great week my friends! One more thing, the new Flickr mobile interface is somewhat buggy and preventing me from commenting on your photos. I think I'll switch back to the old Flickr mobile interface.

The Shah Mosque of Isfahan definitely is one of the masterpieces of Persian Architecture. It is registered, along with the Naghsh-e Jahan Square (in front of it) as a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Necrópolis Sha-i-Zinda,en Samarcanda (Uzbekistán), siglos XI a XV. Grupo superior (S. XIV), con el Mausoleo Khodja-Akhmad.
The Shah-i-Zinda is a necropolis that grew around the legendary grave of Qutham ibn Abas, a cousin of the prophet Muhammad.
From the late 14th century onwards, Amir Timur ordered the construction of various mausoleums for mainly his female relatives. The result is a small city for the dead, covered with magnificent blue tile mosaics in various Islamic geometric patterns.
