This is a severely cropped image of what I belatedly realized was the Consultative Assembly of Saudi Arabia (Majlis as-Shura) building. I had just loved the dome and tried to get a very long distance capture of it with the little Sony (my good lenses are awaiting release from customs at the moment). I thought the building pictured below was the Shura until I went to link to some information on it and realized it was in fact a convention center. I sort of doubt they have tours of either of them, so this might be as good as I can get of these interesting structures. This is the Shura Council site with nicer pictures in their gallery than I was able to get: http://www.shura.gov.sa/wps/wcm/connect/ShuraEn/internet/Home/ Also a very informative rundown from Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consultative_Assembly_of_Saudi_Arabia
