Our first day in Abu Dhabi

Our first taste of the Muslim culture after a restful evening - Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque - the largest in UAE and the world's eigth . The mosque was opened in 2007 and named after Sheikh Zayed, the founder and the first President of UAE.












Ladies are required to cover themselves at all times in the mosque.
