In May 2018, a new unusual mosque was opened after two years of construction in the Saryarka district of Astana. The design is made in the style of Kazakh postmodernism and also features traditional patterns and decorative elements. The mosque named after Yryskeldi Kazhy resembles a flower bud or a diamond.

The total area of the mosque is 3,695 square meters; it can accommodate more than 2,000 people. The diameter of the building is 53 meters, the height – 26 meters. Yryskeldi Kazhy Mosque on Google Maps. Photos by: Evgeny Tkachenko.
