Green Roshan in Al Balad


Jeddah is known for this beautiful architectural feature of the region - wooden latticed window coverings called roshan.  They are unique and practical and add a special elegance to the old buildings of Al Balad.


Many of the roshan are painted blue or reddish brown, some are left in their natural wood state, but I think my favorite ones are the ones painted green. 



Below is a photo with two shades of green roshan in Al Balad from a distance.
