Minaret at the the Dubai International Airport. This is the first one I saw after landing and thus, the first I've ever seen in the Middle East. The mosque lies just behind the parking structure where the van came to pick us up. I've come to find that mosques are literally everywhere. I've been told that within the major cities, all the way from Abu Dhabi to Ajman, and perhaps beyond, there is no minaret from which it is not possible to see another minaret.

Great pix, Starling. Thanks. Interesting about the 'minaret-to-minaret' network.

Mainly, good to see where you live and work. Be well,
Vic
