'Mamluki Door' up close

On the day before we left Riyadh for good, we were provided with a driver to take us wherever we wanted to go. One place was the National Museum of Saudi Arabia for a final visit.

This is a close-up of the “Mamluki Door” exhibit, which I had photographed right after we arrived in the country, in October 2013 (see other pictures in this old gallery).

A great detail of the door. It must have been strange saying good-bye to Saudi after getting to know it so well.
