Why would it even matter to be confined to one's hotel in this city of wind and sand at the top of the desert steppe?
Because I did not get to see the Blue Mosque, surely one of the fabled wonders of the world. it is not just a place of prayer but a small world unto itself where families spend their holidays packing picnics. It managed to survive the Soviets and the Taliban. Legend says that any dove landing in its courtyard will turn white.
