"Beauty of the East" (Muslim Kazan)
Description:
Dear tourists, you will never understand my Kazan if you do not visit the most real Tatar mosques, those that are more than 200 years old, because this is where the Soul of our city is located.
The most beautiful mosque of Kazan Azimovskaya is undeservedly standing in a place forgotten by God away from the hiking trails, the Mardzhani mosque is the very first stone mosque of the city, Burnaevskaya, Senno-Bazarnaya, Sultan-Galeevskaya, Apanayevskaya - each of them has its own history, different from the others.
Customs, traditions and rituals of the Tatar population: nikah and we kushu (the name of the baby), what is kalfaq and kulmek, ichigi and chabat, holidays: Kurban-bayram, Uraza-bayram and Sabantuy; why it is the “crescent moon” on mosques, and not the “moon”; why the muezzins were considered the most sinless people in the villages, and who are muezzins; how many times a day Muslims pray and what the number 5 means for them; and why it is not so much better than the Kayazan in today’s land.
Isn't it?

Галина, спасибо вам огромное! Очень интересно было прикоснуться к другой культуре, вере и обычаям, о которых вы так доступно, интересно и доходчиво рассказали нам и нашим деткам во время этой необычной экскурсии. Мы в 1й раз в жизни побывали в настоящей татарской мечети, хотя и были раньше в мечетях в Турции, но это совсем другое! - всем советуем, увидели Казань не с "парадной", а с истинной глубинной стороны, и много узнали про обряды и традиции татарского народа. Многое было неожиданно, в общем - здорово! Спасибо еще раз!
