Text and photos by Chen Chi-Hsiang. A unique dome: Look closely—this dome, built with red bricks, features a distinctive undulating facade arrangement.

Due to crowds, a shortcut exit was opened, allowing for a serendipitous encounter with this novel dome, which is otherwise unseen. The following two images show domes inside the Roman baths near the Alhambra, adjacent to the art museum.
