A view of the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, a holy site in Islam

The Dome of the Rock (Arabic: قبة الصخرة Qubbat Al-Sakhrah, Turkish:Kubbetüs Sahra) is a famous Islamic shrine in Jerusalem. It was built between 687 and 691 by the 9th Caliph, Abd al-Malik. It is sometimes called the Mosque of Umar (though it is not a mosque), as 2nd Caliph Umar prayed at the site after the Muslim conquest of Jerusalem.

A three-level shopping center, which also won a major design award, fills the east wing. The large opening is illuminated at night in continuously changing colors.
