Malta Stock Exchange – As it is getting close to sunset, I walked back up to the Upper Barrakka Gardens. This is the highest point of Valletta and probably the best place to enjoy the sunset…
Whitehaven harbour at night; if you have ever wondered why sailors turn green when suffering from seasickness, now you know their yachts are bathed in green while they sleep.
Republic St. – So that really left me with today to do some sightseeing in the main island. After breakfast at the hotel, I took the bus back to Valletta to continue what I left off yesterday…
Alle volte inbucarsi alle feste altrui non è male.. si possono fare strani incontri... chi dice che non esistono i draghi? :D
Morocco.
High Atlas.
Tin Mal (also Tinmel) (Amazigh: ⵜⵉⵏ ⵎⴰⵍ) is a small mountain village in the High Atlas 100 km from Marrakech, Morocco. It is considered the cradle of the Almohad empire, from where the Almohads started their military campaigns against the Almoravids in the early 12th century.
The Tin Mal Mosque is a mosque located in the High Atlas mountains of North Africa. It was built in 1156 to commemorate the founder of the Almohad dynasty, Mohamed Ibn Tumart. It is one of the two mosques in Morocco open to non-Muslims, the other being the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca. The prototype for the Tin Mal mosque was the Great Mosque of Taza (near Fès), also built by Abd al-Mu'min. The Koutoubia in Marrakech was in its turn modelled on it.
The Tin Mal mosque was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on July 1, 1995 in the Cultural category
