The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque

Wow. Which is basically all I could manage walking up to this beautiful Mosque. Of course I was in the company of people who had seen many grand mosques (even grander they claim) but since I’m a mosque newbie I continued on with my excitement.


This mosque is fairly new but is still one of the most visited buildings in the UAE. It is not only a place of worship and Friday gathering, but a center of learning through its education and visitor programs. It is free to visit however you must adhere to strict mosque manners and dress code. Those who are not covered properly are provided with an Abaya (for women) or a Kandura (for men).





Dress code. There was a separate board for additional manners.
