Aeroplane Mosque
Dhaka, Bangladesh

This is a community mosque built by the shop-owner in a narrow five-storey building. A front portion of the building (1st and 2nd floor) has been given to the mosque. A circular staircase is next to the mosque and is a significant portion of the mass. On top of the the five-story block is an aeroplane which now acts as a landmark in the city.
