Canon Square

Todays Theme: Canon Square Abu Dhabi



The Canon.
This style of traditional coffee pot is called a Dallah ( دله ) in Arabic. It is a symbol of welcome, which, given the amount of coffee I have consumed as a guest in the Arab world, makes a lot of sense.


Small Mosques like this seem to be on every corner.

I love that teapot. It's so whimsical - very Alice in Wonderland-like.
