I think the point that the previous critiquer was making is that the sun creates a very strong shadow and obscures some of the detail in the shot.
As someone who shoots a lot of their shots while traveling I know how hard it is to be somewhere at the right time and how one often has to take what fate gives them.
That said, I think you can shed a little light into the darkness, so to speak.
Try using the Shadow tool or Fill Flash (whatever your editing program offers) and lighten up the shadow area.
I've made a quick stab at it just to give you a rough idea what might be done. I also worked a little bit to reduce some of the blue cast in the shadow. With a more concerted effort I think you could bring your bike rider and loitering men out from the dark.
You've used a good shot angle to show the power of the building and found a good sky. A little editing might make an even better image.

What do you think is wrong with the sun? I agree with the time point - a 10 day holiday is never enough!

I guess timing is one of the essential element in photography as you might know. If I were in your place I would wait till the sun is in a right place. It seems to me you take lots of beautiful shots from those Islamic Arts because it would be an exotic stuff for you. What I am trying to say is that by using little bit more time and efforts you could get MUCH BETTER RESULTs.

Nice shot. Good colors, great DOF. You've got great sharpness from the bike rider to the clouds in the sky. Very nice capture. How do you like the lens and the camera? Steve
