Ivanovo, Ivanovo Oblast, Russian Federation
This morning leaving Suzdal after two nights we were heading north to more Golden Ring towns. We were to pass thru Ivanova and I found another Mosque on Google Maps. I didnt know we would continue to see Mosques this north after leaving Moscow.
The Mosque was traditional in design and didnt have any Russia features. It was at a busy intersection in a prominent location.
Inside I went up to the womens section by accident. An Uzbek woman was saying something probably to go down but I didnt understand.
It seems to be a newly constructed complex with plans to expand further. The people there seemed to be Central Asians.
