More than 1000 columns made of jasper, onyx, marble and granite.
The first columns were taken from the temple that existed on this site earlier, as well as other Roman buildings. An innovation was the double arches that support the immense weight of the roof, yet create the airy space of a palm-fringed oasis in the desert. Water, palm trees, oranges - what could be more desirable for the children of the desert.
