  1. Great views of that Mosque Jim, I assume the carpet is marked for prayer spots for each
    worshiper, even gives directions. Do you suppose they point toward Mecca? Just a thought. Keep 'em coming.

    1. Yes, That space on the wall to the right between the areas of blue tiles faces Mecca. It's not uncommon to see a worshiper standing in that niche facing Mecca
