Amongst the amazing variety of ancient buildings in Herat, many of which are in ruins, are the great Friday Mosqueinside the square walls of the old town, and the Musalla - a group of religious buildings with six minarets. The minarets of the 15th-century mausoleum of Mongolian conqueror Temerlane's daughter-in-law are under reconstruction by a U.N.-funded project in Herat, Afghanistan, February 11, 2001. Herat is no longer on the front lines of the war, and workers are planting gardens and patching the holes to restore some of the past glory, which was blasted by Soviet artillery in the 1980s during their occupation of the country.
