Description
The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque constructed between 1996 and 2007 cost approximately $545 million. The Mosque is named after the UAE's first president and the ruler of Abu Dhabi, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who conceived the idea.
As with most buildings in Abu Dhabi, its opulence is overwhelming. The tiny details, such as precious stones like amethyst and jasper embedded into the columns and the intricate floral patterns in mother-of-pearl radiate across the walls. The mosque has a capacity of 40,000 worshipers.
British artist and illustrator Kevin Dean, who came up with the floral designs that adorn the Mosque, describes being involved in one of the world's most exciting architectural projects as "life-changing."
Everyone must remove their shoes before entering so bring a pair of socks if you prefer not to walk around barefoot. You'll need a pair of sunglasses when marveling at the outside as the sun reflects on the marble surface of the courtyard.
