Groups of internally displaced persons from the drought-stricken north-western province of Badghis in a transit camp under the last four minarets of the Timurid-era musulla. The complex was built in 1417 under Queen Gowhar Shahd, wife of Tamerlane's son, Shah Rukh. From here, the displaced will be brought to Maslak Camp in the desert to the west of the city.
