Sauron is expanding Mordor I see.';

'it looks like shit because it isn't finished
do they have any art of what it's supposed to look like?';

'>>196473515
Looks like shit because it looks like fucking mars';

'personally I'd demolish everything and leave the temple in the middle of the desert
pilgrims would be forced to walk the last 10 miles and cameras would be banned
the saudis have no sense of aesthetics they are a disgrace';

'>>196473050
Arabs literally have no sense of style, they just think big = style. The clocktower is completely soulless and built purely for the take of having the biggest clocktower.';

'>>196473050
I too love these cozy games like SimCity: Mars Colony.';

'irl Mordor';

'Money can't buy taste';

'>>196473050
Wahhabis, the Islamic sect that the Saudi ruling class belongs to, think Hajj is literally idolatry. That's why they're slowly destroying Kaaba by building crass-looking shit that makes it look like Disneyland and stripping it of religious mystique.';

'>>196473050
wheres that? it'll probably look great when it's finished and green trees are planted
>>196473713
looks like big ben ain't that big anymore hehe';

'>>196473050
Why don’t they use color?';

'>>196473050
build me an army worthy of Mordor';

'>>196474558
Their paki slaves don't know how to do that.';

'>>196474558
they fell for the "ancients didn't use colors when building" meme';

'>>196474501
>wheres that?
ahmed...';

'i thought this was the millennium falcon from the thumbnail haha';

'how can anyone look at this and not realize muslims are evil';

'>>196474501
>most devout central asian muslim';

'>>196473050
It doesn't look bad';

'It's disrespectful to build massive towers next holy structures';

'>>196475366
>It doesn't look bad
this level of cope and delusion';

'Sovlless, as to be expected from araps';

'>>196473050';

'>>196475366
You can barely see the Kaaba from that picture';

'that pic reminds me of Gears of War for some reason';

'>>196475366
>muslims really think Mordor is beautiful';

'>>196473050
is that the technodrome?';

'>>196473050
These Moors used to construct buildings that were harmonious, aesthetic and functional at the same time. They used to be at the level of the Christians in architecture, mathematics and sciences in general. What happened to them?';

'>>196475632
The Saud family took over Islam';

'>>196475632
Moorish architecture isn't the same as middle eastern ones';

'>>196475632
The Mongols destroyed the Islamic golden age and the Ottomans stagnated everything.';

'>>196475733
But both have common roots in the Umayyad Caliphate
Redpill me in the Muslim Golden Age';

'>>196474558
colors bring joy and joy is ci sidered haram';

'>>196475632
That shit is 1200 years old';

'>>196475950
looks like architecture going to shit is a global phenomenon';

'>>196475809
There is Umayyad style architecture and you can see it in their capital in Damascus which by itself was heavily influenced by Byzantines architecture. Moorish architecture is much more distinctive and while in it's infancy it might have resembled Umayyads style it grew to be more original perfect example of mature moorish style is in Al Hambra which doesn't look like anything from Cordoba era';

'>>196473050
Looks like HOMM IV town';

'>>196475632
>these moors
>thinking some bedouin built that rather than native iberians that lived there';

'>>196475632
Constant inbreeding eventually took its toll.';

'>>196476125
It is curious that almost all the towns had a glorious past and we end up being a shadow of what we were. Sad and curious. No empire is eternal, as we say here';

'>>196473657
conquistador blood';

'>>196475979
Pic related is Plaza de España, built about 150 years ago. It may ring a bell from Star Wars I (Naboo). These constructions are of better quality than those of today and infinitely more aesthetic. We will never be able to be at the level of our ancestors, in spite of having better technologies... How the fuck is it possible? Why are modern cities so souless?';

'>>196473050
whats in the black box?';

'>>196473657
unironically based.

>>196477267
come and i'll show you.';

Wahabbis';

'>>196475979
Its a side effect of modern architecture. Newer more open spaces leave less room for decorations so we live in an era of mnmlsm.';

'>>196478496
Yes that's what I was saying';

'>>196476519
Yeah the native Iberians were building monuments in Marrakech then exporting it to Iberia';

'>>196473050
looks like a giant squat toilet if i'm being honest here';

'>>196475950';
