Asma Bint Alawi Mosque, door

We stumbled across this beautiful mosque – Asma Bint Alawi -- quite by accident as I had seen the dome from the road and wanted to a get closer look. We were pretty surprised when we saw what was through the front gate!

This was the enormous front door, which I thought was exquisite.

A view of the mosque through the front gate:
