mysteek_1976 January 8th, 2009, 07:14 PM This complex looks a bit disjointed. It isn't symmetrical at all. Why would you create a plan for symmetry and and then ruin it with clumsy looking buildings that appear to have no correspondance to each other? I should mention that the cladding is ok but that's it. I give this one a 3.

desertpunk November 2nd, 2009, 05:39 AM Because it's Mecca, and because it's so over-the-top, it gets an 8.
national guard November 12th, 2009, 08:51 AM it's NOT A MOSQUE!
looks crowded and out-of-place in Makkah.
