The Grand Jumeirah Mosque photographed at twilight with the skyline of Downtown Dubai in the background. Dubai, UAE.
The Grand Jumeirah Mosque, considered to be one of the most attractive in Dubai, is also the only one in the city that is open to non-Muslim visitors. Built in the medieval Fatimid tradition, this stone structure is a tribute to modern Islamic architecture. The Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding organizes visits for non-Muslims, aimed at promoting cultural understanding and first-hand experience as an insight to the Islamic religion.
