Last gate for now

A different kind of gate that complemented the unusual wall design quite nicely.

I think this will be the last picture for this gallery for now, although I imagine I’ll add to it as I come across more interesting gates. Thanks so very much for the interest in this gallery -- I honestly never expected that! -- but am happy I was able to show people this one particularly nice aspect of Riyadh.

And now to try to find some other pictures to work on…

Each door, house entry indicates the character of its inhabitants! Another splendid catch, Helen.V

Very decorative with great use of line and curves, well captured Helen.

intersting that their gate worship doesn't seem to extend to maintenance, but maybe even their fortunes wax and wane
