Ein sehr altes Bild. Es entstand um Ostern 1988. Der Felsendom wurde im 7. Jahrhundert erbaut und ist eines der wichtigsten moslemischen Heiligtümer. Moslems glauben, dass der Prophet Mohammed von hier aus zum Himmel auffuhr.

Very nicely framed.
I like the contrast of the deep blue sky and the shining gold cupola.
