The Mosque of Ahmed ibn Tulun

A short animation which I did in 1997 of this beautiful mudbrick mosque. The Ibn Tulun Mosque was completed in 879 AD on Mount Yashkur in a settlement named al-Qata'i by the founder of Egypt's Tulunid Dynasty (868-905 AD), Ahmad ibn Tulun.

Hello Gabriel, i am an architecture student in ETH Zurich studying urban design and we are studying more about Cairo and its important architectural monuments. I chose Ibn Tulun as a research example and found your video animation very helpfull and interesting. Can you help me more with a bit of information maybe an elevation for the site because i can't seem to find alot of architectural drawings and details ! thank you :)
