This temple may not be particularly notable, but it can be a nice way to tie the threads of history together.

Now, I'm wondering if it was ever a Zoroastrian temple :P I suspect it wasn't, I'll have to check.

So, according to the buddhist history, it was always buddhist, and only one of the abbots converted to Islam. He may have been killed by Tibetans. To research flammif e r^talk 22:09, 15 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Probably not that Mecca-like (or perhaps the other way round)

I've read a couple of works that state that the idea of the temple ever having been like the Mecca may have been propaganda on the Barmakids' part, to somehow prove that they were practicing Islam all along. There's some information here. It'd make sense, considering they so often had charges of impiety levelled against them for their recent conversion and their religious tolerance.

This page was redesigned at the edge.

A page that knows where it met you.
