Exterior Columns and Pool, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Abu Dhabi, UAE
The reflective pools that run around the perimeter of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque are a traditional feature of Islamic architecture and gardens across the centuries. A total of 10 rectangular pools surround the Mosque and are tiled in different shades of blue. Nearly 7,000 square meters of water cools the bright shimmer of the white marble.
