This is the second photo of a Mosque I have seen today while checking the portal, and both are very different in architecture. I am adding the same comment I made on the first one I enjoyed: I just attended a lecture on Islam and Moslem facts and descriptions. One of the most fascinating details was the differences between the religion and culture which explains the diversity in clothing, customs, and even the architecture of the Mosques. When teaching years ago I also included information for both faculty and students when we were on the Middle East unit with material provided by the local Islamic Center. Was relieved to learn that the information I presented then was accurate! Whew!

Love the beauty of both Mosques!
