It's a very beautiful mosque. They tried to get there for a while, drove by car, drove into the territory for a long time, because there were many people who also wanted to admire this beauty, then they were looking for another parking place. We went down to the shopping center, there we had to get a qr code, followed the signs where to get it, eventually we came to the entrance to the mosque, they said we had to go to the other end of the shopping center for the code, we found these screens, my husband gave us the code, I had to buy a special closed outfit, it cost 45 dirhams, for free No clothes are given at the entrance to the mosque.

Majestic and very beautiful. Everything is fenced off and security is shown where to go. There were a lot of people, there were in the evening and during Ramadan A QR code is required to enter the inner hall, we missed it, but the chances are slim. There's no chance of getting back by bus, they rarely go, and if they do, they're already packed, and taxis were always leaving with passengers.

Anyone who writes reviews about the Sheikh Zayed mosque here and even adds a photo of it is clearly not very smart. People, this is another mosque, it's located in an ordinary residential courtyard, it's probably beautiful too, but it's clearly not the largest and most popular mosque in the UAE. Score in the navigators of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Center and you will be lucky.

Beauty. It is worth all the queues and immediately at the entrance of the purchased closed dresses. It is unusual, snow-white, with ornaments and patterns of flowers on the walls, ceiling and floor. Stained glass windows, carpets with the most delicate patterns and shades of green, chandeliers. And it is very fragile - to walk only on specially paved places and on sidewalks, so as not to destroy.A toy.
