Dome of the Rock, Jerusalem

Overview of the southern platform of the Dome of the Rock, looking west. (Hover over the photo to find the locations of the following sights.) In the background on the left is the Silsila Minaret and the southwestern qanatir (colonnade). The rectangular building to the right is the Madrasa Ashrafiyya, a 15th-century Islamic theological college. Further to the right, just barely visible, is the small stone dome of the Sabil Qaytbay fountain. Photo Creative Commons License Ālbum de fotografies.
