Al-Aqsa Mosque

Jerusalem, Israel, Middle East

The low grey building of Al-Aqsa Mosque (Arab for «farthest mosque») is at the edge of the Temple Mount, aside from the magnificent Dome of the Rock, seemingly dimmed against its background. However, it is just Al-Aqsa that is the third important Muslim sanctuary
