WALKING THE STREETS OF AUBURN - GALLIPOLI MOSQUE

We stopped at Auburn Gallipoli Mosque for our Zuhur prayer and that was the biggest and most beautiful mosque that I had ever come across after traveling in a few cities in Australia. The architecture has a strong influence from Turkey as many Turks are residing in this area, I supposed.

There was this kind of feeling I had when I was in the mosque. I felt more secured and more at home even though I was in a foreign land.

WALKING THE STREETS OF AUBURN - GOING LEBANESE

We were going Lebanese for lunch. Well, it tasted real Lebanese. As usual, the food came in large portion so someone had to take the bread home instead of having it there.

WALKING THE STREETS OF AUBURN - PART ONE

The next detour was a small town called Auburn located at the city outskirt. The minority group mainly composed of Asian and Middle-Eastern people can be found here. We were here because Mr. Ridwan needed to get his stock of halal meat products and I was looking for baklava , the Lebanese/Turkish sweet cookies. The last time I had baklava was during my visit to Melbourne last year.








It was a very short visit but there were a few other places that we had stopped within this small town of Auburn.
