Abu Dhabi Grand Mosque

This is a pretty spectacular building in itself. The overcast, hazy sky made it hard to truly capture the scale and impact the building has. The scale is huge. The detail both inside and out is intricate. It boasts some of the largest chandeliers ever made and the largest carpet ever made. Well worth a visit. Like so many great attractions – there are a lot of people about but that cannot be helped.

On a side note – this huge structure got built in 11 years, where as the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona is still not finished over 130 years later.
