In the garden of the public libraryof Nablus,four Corinthian capitals(meaning the head part of a coloumn) stand majestically as wittnesses of ancient cultures.The Corinthian style coloumns(refering to the Greek city of Corinth) , are characterized by a slender fluted coloumn and an ornate capital decorated with acanthus leaves and scrolls.(click to see details , it's beautiful)Note the very old floor tiles made from local stones querried from the mountains of Nablus .
The planter on the right is also locally made of cement and gravel.
