Al Jarina Mosque

Haifa


A few hundred metres east of Paris Sq is the late 18th-century Al Jarina Mosque, topped by an early-20th-century minaret that looks a little like a provincial English clock tower. The mosque is for worshippers only, though the view of the minaret surrounded by skyscrapers is an irresistible snapshot.
