when i saw for the first time i felt wow how this place is

here is the old water pipe where water go there to the KINGS and to supply water to the Citadel, Saladin built the deep Well of Joseph ( Yūsif, is the Arabic name of Joseph), which can still be seen today. This well is also known as the Well of the Spiral because its entrance consisted of 300 stairs that wound around the inside of the well. Once water was raised from the well to the surface, it traveled to the Citadel on a series of aqueducts. During the reign of al-Nasir Muhammad,  

this is Mohammed Ali Basha mosque this view from out side of the Mosque it was a really hot weather and i couldn't stay there for longer period this is a look from outside of the mosque  

and now let's go to a deep look of inside the Mosque
