Jeddah Mosque with Golden Dome


This newer modern mosque features a large golden dome above the main building and a smaller golden dome at the top of its minaret.


This shot from a different angle was taken on a different day as well.

Do you have any idea of how well these kinds of dome last in the hot and dusty environment?

Hi Jerry - I have no idea, but I do know that paint doesn't fare well in this climate. I would guess that what the dome is made of would make a big difference in how well it would withstand the elements.
