Different

Pretty different from most of the other gates I’ve seen, but there was something I really liked about it.

We have been having incredibly heavy rain in Riyadh recently, with severe flooding. For an excellent (short) clip of the devastation, see http://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2015/nov/26/tunnel-floods-in-saudi-arabia-amid-heavy-rain-trapping-cars-video
