Imamzadeh of Ganja

Shrine complex 7 km north of Ganja, Azerbaijan, also known as the Goy Imam Mausoleum for its striking blue-tiled dome. It is traditionally held to house the grave of a son of the fifth Shia Imam, Muhammad al-Baqir, with the earliest tomb dating to the 8th century. Rebuilt and expanded across several centuries, most recently between 2010 and 2016, it remains one of Azerbaijan's most significant Shia pilgrimage sites.
