While this ornate spiritual complex, built primarily in the 14th and 15th centuries, is relatively youthful compared to its ancient counterparts on this list, it is no less an architectural wonder.

A spiritual hub of such complexity and creativity doesn’t happen overnight; in fact, it took almost a century and a half to build, from 1386 to 1517. [
