this is the still under construction Sheikh Zayed Mosque.
an architectural masterpiece graced with a Persian carpet said to be the biggest in the world.
It is the third biggest mosque in the world after the Haramain
This is a wonderful mosque to visit because it is one of the few not off-limits to non-Muslims.
Women must cover themselves from head to toe in abayas, or long black robes, handed them at the entrance.
Built 100 per cent with Italian marble, the mosque has four 107m tall minarets, 82 domes of seven different sizes, 96 columns inside and 1,048 outside

The centrepiece is a 6,000sqm hand-made Persian carpet, said to be the biggest in the world.
"More than 1,200 women from the Khorasan region in eastern Iran spent two years weaving the carpet, which weighs 45 tonnes and cost more than US$8.5 million ($12 million)," Ameri said.
The carpet covers the floor of the main prayer hall, which can accommodate up to 9,000 faithful.
Two rooms next to the main prayer hall, with a 1,500-capacity each, have been reserved for women, who can follow sermons delivered by prayer leaders on giant television screens.
The main dome is also "the biggest" mosque dome in the world, according to Ameri, who said it is 75m high with a 32.2m diameter.
Another breathtaking piece is a huge crystal chandelier in the main prayer hall, one of seven German-made chandeliers costing more than US$8 million. It is 10m tall, 10m wide and weighs nine tonnes.
Ameri would not give the total cost of the mosque, but Suleimani estimated it at more than two billion dirhams ($776 million). AFP
Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque was initiated by the late president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who wanted to establish a structure which unites the cultural diversity of Islamic world, the historical and modern values of architecture and art.
