Walking into the Islamic Museum, the silver dome of the atrium is a hemisphere with Arabic characteristics, which is composed of complex figures. The center of the hemisphere is like a human eye pupil gazing at the visitors silently. It makes people solemn and solemn. The walls of the building are decorated with large glass curtain walls. Outside the window is the magnificent view of the Persian Gulf. The museum displays the history from the birth of Islam to the heyday of the Ottoman Empire. We dare not shoot the exhibits rashly, but leave them blank. The night was already dark, and the lights on both sides of the bay were fading and the stars were shining brightly. Look at the coconut trees and listen to the waves. It seems that both body and mind are melted into the sea, free from worry and open-minded. Especially, the dreamlike sea of broken gold and jade makes people intoxicated and infatuated. Looking back on the Art Palace floating on the sea, waving goodbye and meeting again!!!

    The waitress at the front desk was not very friendly, a bit fierce, hahaha... There are not many people visiting, there are many Chinese, and overall, they are all Middle Eastern people visiting. The last large cultural building of Bei Xuming is this, the design is simple and modern, good.
