    Get to the Mosque and watch its rich traditional designs, from floor to ceiling, as the name says its ‘grand’ in every angle. Attractions here are plenty... most notable among them are the world’s largest hand-woven carpet (measuring around 60,570 sq ft. this carpet was hand-woven by about 1,200 - 1,300 carpet knitters), largest marble mosaic floral design in the world, third-largest chandelier in the world (that adorns the main prayer hall), glass panels studded with Swarovski crystals, and many more! The interiors of The Abu Dhabi Grand Mosque are richly decorated with verses of the Holy Quran in three varieties of Arabic calligraphy. As you move around the premises you can see the reflective pools that surround the Mosque, which in turn amplifies its beauty! Overall you will never get tired of exploring the gigantic structural masterpieces. After completing the Mosque visit, you will be dropped back to the selected location/hotel by us.
