One of the most fascinating architectural places. I highly recommend attending one of the tours that the mosque offers for free. During my visit, I joined a tour with Meera, her charisma and passion made my visit a memorable experience
such an amazing place , if you're photographer just go there & enjoy every detail of our mosque
Very important for people, also not Muslim can visit it. This is a place of prayer and therefore it is obligatory to respect the rules of education and respect. The staff is very courteous and, if necessary, can deliver temporary clothes.
It was amazing before, now is just extremely crowded, you need to walk kilometers to just see that everything has been restricted from public and you are just on the run to do pictures and to give them the tickets for scan.

One of the Most Fascinating and Amazing Architectural Master Piece of the Modern World....A must visit experience in the UAE.
I can highly recommenda visit of Abu dhabis great mosque. It was a lifetime experience to visit it! You have to enter through one of the blue bobbles around the mosque. Females will get traditional inspired capes in different colors at the entrance for free. The way to the main entrance has AC, as well as some inner parts of the mosque. During a sidewalk you will be outside as well as inside and you can stay as long as you want. At the picture spots you can take as many photos as you want. Entering the mosque is for free and it's possible to visit for older and disabled with cards too.
Top place to visit in Abu Dhabi, best time to visit is before sunset
This is such a beautiful place. If you are anywhere in the vicinity, DO NOT miss this mosque! Entrance is free. If you are female, you'll likely need to get an abaya to cover up to the ankles and wrists. They give this to you at the entrance for free, (supposedly dry cleaned in between people,) if they see that your outfit needs more coverage. It has a hood for head coverage, but we saw many people in their abaya with their own head scarf.
Inside the mosque, there are certain areas that are only for people who are actually there to pray. Other than that, walk around and take your photos!
The new mosque in Abu Dhabi is named after a visionary man, a statesman, who made his country an example to follow in various orders for the rulers of many countries of the world. The mosque is very attractive for tourists, as it is distinguished by its special beauty in which it combines the characteristic features of traditional mosques with a rich exterior and interior decoration, both in walls covered with white marble and in floors and walls decorated with floral motifs in marbles of different colors, magnificent crystal lamps, and includes a splendid colonnade with the arches of Islamic Arabic architecture but at the same time with an air of modernity. All this makes it a must for tourists.
A remarkable piece of structure. The beauty of this lovely mosque is un-explainable. Getting there will take you time but it's worth it. The mosque was packed with tourists on Friday and the experience was quite beautiful.
Oh, what a magnificent place! I was surprise to be able to enter, in other muslim countries they don t allow non muslimn inside mosques. Words are a few to try to describe this amazing building. What I liked a lot is the fact that the staff is so kind and they do their best to help you no matter your nationality. This beautiful mosque is a must when Abu Dhabi! p.s averything is free, but a a woman you must wear abaya :)
It is nice place of abudhabi I like it very much
We enjoyed there lots
Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is the biggest mosque in middle east, Located in Abudhabi. No restriction for any religion. Need to be follow special dress code inside mosque , available at the entrance of mosque with free of cost. The granite design and the pillars of mosque is amazing. The weaven floor mat is also great to see.

Architecture at its best, no details left out. Magnificent! The details, quality of workmanship. The biggest chandelier in the world! I think.
UAE largest mosque. Its a long relaxing in our minds. Grand iftar kits is available on all days in Ramadan.
Serene beautiful mosque. Completely white structure. The carpet used in the mosque is the world's largest carpet. There are many chandeliers, each with different designs and intricities. The girls are given a abya to wear at the entrance. It has a hood attached. Need to take out shoe before entering. Best time to visit is during sunset.
Excellent architecture.
You need to catch the guide, hen only will you understand the history of where each piece of tile and stone came from. Check their site for visiting hours and guided tours.
Plenty of parking space. Please come respectfully dressed.
The mosque is opened on all days except during prayer hours where you will need to wait for a few moments. There is a checking prior to entering the mosque and you are also provided with burqua or khandoora if you need one.

Amazing, beautiful place. it's really a must if you ever visit Abu Dhabi and during the evening it's 100% recommended. Ps: they lend the burka for the women without cost but it's definitely needed to enter.
The mosque is beautifully constructed
Love it
A serene and beautiful mosque which looks majestic from every angle. The white marble shines bright in the sunlight highlighting the intricate designs and patterns in the carvings. It also houses one of the largest carpets in the world spreading across all prayer Halls. The area is spacious with gardens all around the mosque.
Absolutely beautiful. Women must wear long sleeve top and long pants. Women cannot wear a white top. Wish I had known that. My tour guide gave me an abaja to wear.
Magnificent Piece of Architectural Works...

Amazing Architecture. Love going to this mosque so peaceful and beautiful
A beautiful mosque with amazing architect, everyone is welcomed here, make sure you are dressed appropriate while visiting this place
A must-see in Emirates. Walking through this mosque is a true pleasure for the senses. Maybe the main hall is a bit too lavish, but the exterior and side arcades are magnificent and subtle. Make sure you take the free guided tour as it's really informative and also is the only option for a non-muslim to enter the main prayer hall.
So beautyfull! Peacefull!
Try to go around sunset so that you also have the night view.
Watch out for visithours! No touristic visits during friday prayer of course.
A must see during your stay in the AUE
Entrance is for free and there is enough parkingspace if you go by car.
Correct clothing to enter the mosque is available for man and woman for free.
Nice architecture. The place is maintained very well.
This is one of the most visited sites in Abu Dhabi. Best to go early just before sunrise or around sunset.
Wow ... You Must Have To Add This Place in your list of one of the most amazing places of UAE
Really good place to visit, at least once in your life time.
This mosque is a MUST visit. Peaceful and relaxing and amazing architecture. It has also got to be the most well maintained and clean places I have ever visited. Try visiting and wearing white socks, and then look at your white socks after walking around on the ground and you will see what I mean. Truly beautiful place.
Beautiful masjid. Good example of ottoman and modern design. Well maintained and is open for all. But you must have a dress code. You can take pictures. Strict security check and under surveillance
This is an incredible mosque. It's a piece of white art, pure marble and golden ornaments. It has the world's largest chandelier, the world's largest hand woven carpet and it's simply unbelievable. You need to see it during sunset, this is a magical moment. Go and visit it. THE landmark of Abu Dhabi.
The most beautiful place for peace of mind, outstanding architecture and design, a real masterpiece of our time!
Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, is a majestic architectural place to visit in the UAE. This marble wonder is a treat to eyes. Non-Muslims also can enter inside the mosque and enjoy this marvel. women has to wear abaya (which will be provided for the needed ones from the mosque premise) loads of parking space scenic surroundings, etc are major attractions
Must visit place if you are in UAE
Well build and well maintained place. Ample parking space. The site is accessible to men and women of all faiths.
They've battery/electric operated buggies which can pick up and drop visitors between two main points.
The place attracts alot of crowd towards late evenings and holidays/weekends so best to chose weekdays.
The design and construction is wonderful with alot of artwork and a guided tour would give more insights.
A wonderful and well organised visit. We took a guided tour, which was very interesting. We got to see parts of the mosque that one would otherwise not see. If you go visit I would strongly recommend taking the tour.
It was not fully opened during asr prayers we could have seen the beautiful interiors
Everyone speak english. Is free entry and free tours. Is the most amazing place I have seen. Unforgettable.
Excellent place...very clean and well maintained.very strict and disciplined.need to dress conservatively esp girls n ladies.
Spiritual, Serenity, Scenic... An amazing beauty of its architecture. A must visit when in Abu Dhabi. Visit during the 5pm hrs so that you can enjoy the both of the world's of day and evening.
One of the most beautiful places to visit!! The grandiose is exhilarating!! Its just so beautiful!!
A curvature of blending of Islamic Arts and Architecture. A masterpiece structure that attracts over five million people yearly from every part of the world irrespective of religion demonstrates the tolerance of Islam
An architectural marvel that resonates the spirit of Abu Dhabi. A place must visit whether alone or with family and friends. Since it is huge in size one has to follow the flow of the place that will ensure you get to admire every part of the holy place. Since it is a religious place, make sure you follow the decorum and behavioral etiquettes as a sign of respect. The new entrance and exit takes you through the series of indoor shopping if you wish to buy souvenirs, dates and perfumes and eateries and cafes for those mini hungers after a long walk.
Beautiful Mosque. Such a peaceful place to be I. Abu Dhabi. Has to be seen if you are in the city.
Sheikh Zayed Mosque is very beautiful Mosque and great Art of Work.
It's an awesome in UAE. Peaceful place.
Great architecture work.
Beautiful architecture. Friendly helpful staff. Recommended place to visit.
