Decrepit

I’m now going back in time almost a year, for another visit to Diriyah, most of the pictures from which I never posted. We went to Jeddah the same month, and I guess they just got forgotten in the excitement of a new place to photograph.

This old house could now be under restoration or demolition because when we visited last week, the lot was totally surrounded by a construction fence. It’s across the street from a brand new complex with museum and retail (a few pictures to come), so it will be interesting to see what they do with this.

Very nice look on how they constructed that roof.
