The Umayyad Mosque in Damascus

This picture already tells you half the history of this mosque. It was first an Aramean temple, then a Roman temple, then a church and now one of the most magnificent mosques in the Arabic country's. But for me it is most importantly such a vivid place. All kind of people walk here, pray but also just enjoying the peacefull place and the sunny courtyard. I sat against one of the pilars for half an hour just taking in the atmosphere
