Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque

Eighty-two marble domes, over a thousand columns inlaid with mother-of-pearl, the world's largest hand-knotted carpet and chandeliers of Swarovski crystal. Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque welcomes visitors of all faiths — come at late afternoon and stay as the floodlights follow the phases of the moon.

Make a day of it — Combine with Qasr Al Watan for a full Abu Dhabi culture day. Modest dress required; we brief every guest before arrival.
