One of the more prominent places of worship in Mophet is the temple of Afe'aa. It's primary cartaker is a priestess by the name of Kahina, a woman of strong conviction and compassion. Along with Tabib, she is one of the more well-known people in the city and her opinions carry a lot of weight.

Had a lot of fun making this temple/mosque. Started with the mosaic on the outside where I based it heavily on a pattern designed by @LittleJohn. For once I actually decided to do an interior, which was a bit of a challenge as I didn't want to compromise the look of the exterior. I then decided to go for a mosaic floor on the inside as well and came up with a pattern I was pretty happy with (small tutorial on my Flickr for anyone that might be interested). Thanks for watching, cheers!

Looks great! Additionally to the mosaic floor, which fits simply perfectly to the oriental theme of your build, the facade is also very well done with really good decorative ideas. :classic:

Very nice ornate build overall, my favorite detail is the wallpaper stripe over the gate :classic:

Nice work here especially on the various mosaic patterns!  Really like the teeth on the edges of the tables (benches?) inside too - they give them a unique rounded look!

This is a great and magical temple! I like the colour combos and the overall share of the temple. Then I like the use of that wallpaper printed bricks with the dark red. Great work mate!

Very nice temple.  I like the pillars and the way you used the 1x1 rounds, gives the temple some character.  The tables or benches you have off to the sides look great as do the floors with the different pieces and coloring, makes them stand out.  The doorway and the door itself are really well done, I like the color choices for the door and the use of those gold pieces in the middle.  Nice looking figs too.

Stunning. I hugely enjoy seeing detailed middle eastern architecture, and this build is a great example of the possibilities that setting offers.

Brilliant patterns, top-notch color use, plus an onion dome :wub: Superb table design inside too!
