IMMERSION IN THE GREAT MOSQUE OF ABU DHABI

 

GlobalServices4You offers you the opportunity to discover one of the most beautiful Mosques in the world: the Great Mosque of Abu Dhabi.

You will undoubtedly be amazed at first sight of the majestic Great Mosque of Sheikh Zayed in immaculate white marble. An architectural masterpiece of immense proportions, it has 880 domes, 1000 pillars and can accommodate up to 40,000 worshippers. It is an example of modern Islamic architecture. It was both the grand vision of former President Sheikh Zayed bin Sulta Al Nahyan and his final resting place.

Blending influences from Mamluk, Ottoman, Fatimid and Indo-Islamic architectural styles with more contemporary ones, the mosque drew on the work of craftsmen from around the world. Not only is it the largest mosque in the country, it also claims the titles of the world’s largest mosaic, largest carpet and third largest chandelier with 11 tons of Swarovski crystals and 24-carat gold.

Fortunately for many, it is also one of the few mosques in the country that non-Muslims are allowed to enter. However, remember to observe the dress code by wearing long, loose-fitting trousers or skirts, long sleeves and a headscarf for women.
