the Toghrol Tower in Rey, Iran (1063),
A Building to tell the time...
The Toghrol Tower is a 20 meters high tower located in the city of Rey in Iran made of bricks and Sarooj, a water-resistant mortar.
It was erected in 1063, and according to some sources, it was conceived as the tomb of Tuğrul Beg, the founder of the Seljuk dynasty.
Other scholars report that it was used as a lighthouse to guide the travellers of the Silk Road during foggy days and nights.
