This is actually in Houston, Texas; it's the community center for the Turkish and Eurasian community here [link] Maybe they based it on the Mevlana Museum, that would be so cool I've always wanted to visit that place

It really is, from the inside too I didn't get to take any pictures inside though, 'cause there was a festival and it was packed!

I'll defo try to I miss Islamic architecture so much It's funny how I didn't value it much when it was all around me, but after I moved here, I miss all the domes with crescents on top, the arches, the arabesque tiles, everything.

This is the Turquoise Center here in Houston, built as a community center for the Turkish and Eurasian communities in this area. They have big ballrooms and conference halls, as well as exhibit halls, inside. The internal architecture is really pretty too, but I wasn't able to get any pictures because the day I went there was a festival, and it was really crowded! Here's a link to their website if you want to know more [link]
