The Kalon minaret, built in the XII century from burnt brick, rises more than 46 meters, and its top is crowned by a conical lantern. The minaret is connected to the roof of the Kalon Mosque by means of a bridge, from which, in turn, you can climb a spiral staircase to the dome itself, from which an impregnable panoramic view opens. The mosque itself was rebuilt a little later than the minaret – in the 16th century, and to this day is the main mosque of the city.
