Bahrain Grand Mosque

Set against the backdrop of palm trees and the sea, the Grand Mosque strikes a beautiful picture. With its exquisite Bahraini architecture, crowned by the world's largest fibreglass dome and blessed with a tranquillity reserved for the holiest of holy places, the Grand Mosque truly lives up to its name.

 

Though non-Moslem visitors are welcome, it is important that you dress modestly, cover your head and take your shoes off before entering.
