Friday Foto 4

Continuing on with the thread from my last post, I thought that I’d post a photo of what may be the most beautiful mosque in Libya. The mosque of Murad Agha was built in what is called the Al-Andalus style with a square minaret, it is an easy day trip from Tripoli. Just find the shared taxis going to Tajura and jump out when you see the mosque. When I was there it was closed, but someone quickly found the man with the key and let me wander around inside. Inside there really isn’t much to see, but it is curious that most of the pillars had been taken from nearby Leptis Magna.
