Gold Dome Mosque


Surrounded by cement, sand, and interesting looking trees, this golden domed mosque seems to sit in the desert all by itself, when it is actually located in a rapidly developing sector of Jeddah.  Many mosques are designed with beautiful domes, and almost all have minarets equipped with loudspeakers to announce the five daily calls to prayer far and wide.

I love the more traditional building you post pictures of.
