The Great Mosque of Djenné 🏜️🕌📸(1)
🤩Desert Dwelling : The Great Mosque of Djenné, located in Mali, stands as a majestic testament to human ingenuity and architectural brilliance in the heart of the desert. 🌵 ✨ This awe-inspiring structure is renowned as the world's largest mud-brick mosque, a marvel that continues to captivate visitors from around the globe. 🌍 Each year, after the rainy season at the end of the year, the mud surface of the mosque gets washed thin by the rains. 🌧️ 💦 The local community then comes together in a spirit of unity and cooperation, gathering to mix fresh mud and generously apply a thick new layer to the mosque's exterior walls. 🤝 🛠️ This annual ritual not only preserves the mosque's structural integrity but also reinforces the bonds within the community. 👫 #HAKUCHI #NostalgicVistas #ArtAndArchitecture #DesertGems
