Turkmenbashi Ruhy Mosque, Gypjak village
The Mosque built in honor of Turkmenbashi
Eleven kilometers to the west of Ashgabat there stands the largest mosque in Central Asia and main mosque of Turkmenistan – The Turkmenbashi Ruhy Mosque. Like all other buildings of the period of independence it differs with its immensity and grandiosity.
The mosque was built in 2002-2004 on the initiative of Turkmenbashi and named after him. Its word-for-word translation means “the mosque of Turkmenbashi spirituality” or “the mosque of spirit of Turkmenbashi”. By the way the mosque is located in Gypjak – the Turkmenbashi native village.
The construction of the mosque cost to Turkmenistan $100,000,000. The whole complex is built in white marble by French company Bouygues. The total area occupied by the complex is 18,000,000 m2. The mosque itself is a one-domed building, surrounded by 4 minarets. The height of the mosque is 55 m, and that of the minarets is 91 m to symbolize the year 1991 – when Turkmenistan gained independence. The building is accessible through 9 entries with arches. Around the mosque there are numerous fountains as though the mosque stands on the water and it makes the mosque look very good.
The mosque walls are traditionally decorated with suras from Koran and also phrases from Rukhnama – the book on spirituality and morality written by Turkmenbashi himself. Due to this fact the mosque is not recognized by many Muslims.
Inside the mosque there is a huge praying hall with white columns and richly painted celestial blue dome. The heated floor is covered with a huge hand-made Turkmen carpet. The mosque can accommodate about 10,000 people, but visitors are usually few there. Under the mosque there is an underground garage capable to park over 400 cars.
Near the mosque, there is the Turkmenbashi Mausoleum – more modest in décor and size. Turkmenbashi himself is buried in the central sarcophagus, and around it, there are three more sarcophagi with his mother and two brothers, and one in addition, which is empty – a symbolic sarcophagus with the name of Turkmenbashi’s father, buried in another place.
Turkmenbashi’s mother and both of his brothers are known to die during the earthquake of 1948. As far as Turkmenbashi himself concerns, he had a narrow escape: that very day, he got up early and went outside for a walk.
Opposite the entry to the mausoleum, there is a memorial complex, erected in memory of the people killed by the earthquake of 1948.
The Turkmenbashi Ruhy Mosque is a national asset and pride of the Turkmen people. Its image can also be seen on a national currency – 500-TMT banknote.
*KOW ATA* UNDERGROUND LAKE IN TURKMENISTAN
Kow-Ata. Father of Caves
Kow-Ata Underground Lake is located in Baharly (formerly Bakharden) in the foothills of the Kopet-Dag Mountains (107 km west of Ashgabat). The Turkmen name Kow-Ata means father of caves. At first glance, this underground area appears like a magnificent auditorium: the overall length of the cave is 230 m, its height reaches 20 m, and its width is at some points 57 m.
The bottom of the cave is covered with lumps of dissolved limestone (stalagmites), and its warm and gushing water is clear and emerald colored. Even under artificial lightning, tiny pebbles on the bottom can be seen. As you approach the lake, you will feel the air becoming damper and warmer. You can hear sounds like sighs or whispers above your head. These are the pigeons which inhabit the cave in great abundance.
The water has a constant temperature of 33-37°C. Chemical analysis has shown that the water contains a complex combination of chemical elements - over 30 of which have been found to date.
Находится эта пещера в 100 километрах от Ашхабада. На глубине 60 метров от входа в пещеру лежит озеро, которое дышит теплым паром. К нему ведет длинная лестница в 350 ступеней с подсветкой.
В лечебной воде озера содержатся сера, йод, магний, калий, натрий, сульфат, алюминий, бром, железо, сурьма - всего 38 элементов. Купание в воде благотворно действует на организм, улучшает кровообращение, помогает излечить такие болезни, как ревматизм, простуда, почечные и кожные заболевания, успокаивает нервную систему. Температура воды в озере от 33 до 38 градусов круглый год. Длина озера 80 метров, ширина 30 метров, глубина до 16 метров. Это одно из самых больших подземных озер в мире. Никогда луч солнечного света не касался теплого бархата его вод.
Местные жители с незапамятных времен знали о необычных свойствах этого озера. По легенде в эпоху парфянских царей здесь произошло чудесное исцеление восставших рабов, которых до этого подвергали смертельным пыткам. С тех пор, страждующие, добирались до горячего источника, спускаясь в глубину пещеры по веревкам (более 60 метров!).
Размеры пещеры:
длина - 250 метров;
глубина от поверхности земли - 55-60 метров;
ширина - 50 метров;
высота - 25-50 метров;
общая площадь - 6300 кв.м;
объем - 7500 куб.м.
Размеры озера:
длина - 75 метров;
глубина - 8-14 метров;
ширина - 14-23 метра;
площадь - 1050 кв.м;
объем - 6500 куб.м;
температура воды круглый год - от +33 до +37,5 С.
