Hi @NABILazeez,
Thank you for sharing your photos with us. The interior of the mosque looks similar to the Blue Mosque in Istanbul. How is it called? Can you tell us a bit more about the story of the castle?

Hello @NABILazeez,
Thank you for sharing these photos of Salah Eddin Al Ayoubi's castle. As most of the people know, he is a prominent figure during the crusades era, known for the kindness of his heart and rational thinking.
I've seen that, there is a mosque near the castle. The style of the mosque is very similar to the one I saw in Turkey and on the other hand, far from the Moroccan mosque style to which I am used to. In Morocco mosques are more simple, with not so many ornaments and decorations. Two different mosque styles which both are amazing.
Thank you once again and it's always a pleasure watching and reading your posts.

@NABILazeez thank you for sharing your great shots with us.
I am always wondered about Egypt. Since it is rich in mythology and history as well. In my "want to visit" list of Google Maps, i have added many Egyptian places. Now i just included "Salah Eldin Alyouby Castel" in my long list.
I wish one day i would set my foot on the land of Pharaohs.
Thanks again.
Best Regards,
