I see from newspaper articles such as <br />http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4086545,00.html<br />that there is controversy about the mosque.<br /><br />The exhibitions in the mosque change often. No photography allowed, boo! <br />What I saw was the history of Beersheva from Ottoman times onward. Lots of videos and old photos and documents and models of Aussie soldiers and their actual cavalry equipment. <br />The mosque itself is not spectacular. <br />But you should come down to Beersheva to see the new Park of the Australian Soldier! (I've not been inside yet.)<br />About architecture--here is an article about "Move afoot to brand the southern city the 'gray city' for its raw concrete buildings from the '50s and '60s" at<br />http://www.haaretz.com/culture/be-er-sheva-the-capital-of-brutalism.premium-1.501982<br />Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461925401870320466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014444390969839620.post-90834909978751656532013-09-21T21:42:43.397+03:002013-09-21T21:42:43.397+03:00Museums exchanges...Museums exchanges...VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014444390969839620.post-16673553369217574762013-09-21T18:59:51.340+03:002013-09-21T18:59:51.340+03:00I have been to Beersheba a couple of times since t...I have been to Beersheba a couple of times since the museum opened in the 1950s, but I didn't see the mosque.
