Inside the compunds of the Old Friday mosque... small, single roomed coral houses protect the buried royals. From a past era. This mosque is supposedly 800 years old. The surrounding area itself is an old graveyard. The protection, from houses (called tombs) comes as a form of respect. The incricately carved stone slabs are an attraction for the curious tourists who visit the Capital Island insearch of something meaningful.
