Islamic Architecture

Islamic Architecture

This Gallery is your passport to the world's most stunning structures

Step inside some of the world’s most stunning secular and religious buildings via the large-scale photographs in this Gallery.

Through a visual map journeying across the Middle East, Europe, Africa and Asia, visitors will discover that Islamic architecture is not bound by a strict definition; rather, it is a vast, original and nuanced vocabulary that considers the historical, social and functional needs of its context.

In this Gallery, guests can also experience the sounds and sensations of standing inside a minaret; a slender tower part of most mosques. Ours is decorated with beautiful Islamic calligraphy, and makes for a great photo op to share with family and friends.
