Designed by Rafael Viñoly, the Museum of Modern Arab Art is dedicated for Sheikh Hassan Bin Mohammed Al-Thani who has great collection ranging from articles, quranic manuscript, and abstract painting. Covering 33,000 sqm, the exterior of the museum blends into the landscape, and I think it looks great. The completion of the project is expected due in 2011.
The building is set into a landscape of sculpture gardens and outdoor terraces which take advantage of the favorable climate, and also has provision for visitor parking.

Six copper coins dating back to 410 AH for sale. Arabic scripts are struck on each side of the coins. The scripts are as follows: on one side : ” La Ilaha ila Allah” and the date “410″ ; on the other side: “Mohammad Rasoulou Allah”. I would also like to inform you that I have got three ancient precious vases( also for sale). Thank you in advance.
