When you arrive, you'll be amazed by the mosque’s grandeur, which took over a decade to build and spans 30 acres. This incredible site can hold up to 40,000 worshippers at once. As you explore, you'll see stunning features like enormous Swarovski crystal chandeliers, beautiful floral mosaics, and intricate artifacts made of gold, silver, and marble. Don’t miss the massive carpet in the main prayer hall, which covers 60,570 square feet and weighs 35 tons.
