10/10

In terms of Beauty, Grandeur, historical significance, architectural detail, this fine historic architecture has it all. Makes that white marble leap out of red sandstone. All the way to the minarets, its architecture is brilliant. Just perfect. Nothing can be added or substracted from it. Hence, no points taken off.

10/10 - Beautiful color, well-balanced. It commands the space it occupies quite well.

Hydrogen..............Thats probably the perfect & most accurate description I ever read regarding this great mosque. That red sandstone blends in perfectly with white marble. Nothing is overdone or underdone. Just about right. Nothing needs to be added or substracted from it.
