Comment: A long room in the Qasr Al Azraq, with the ceiling supported by a series of stone arches.
Qasr Al Azraq Ceiling Stones * Looking up at the ceilings one can see how the ceilings were formed by layering long lengths of stone, using them like planks.  Other rocks were then piled on top and mortared to make it watertight. * 432 x 323 * (80KB)
