Visiting Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque -Abu Dhabi UAE
Hey There!
-Ceddy Here.
Today I'm going to share some experiences that I had here in UAE.
I've been working here in the United Arab Emirates for a year and still counting.
And my company granted me a vacation leave for 1 month. And since I still don't have any plans to go home to the Philippines. I decided to have a local leave instead together with my cousin.
Since it's only for a month. I need to stretch out these numbers and try to visit some amazing places in the UAE, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
The first Destination will be in Abu Dhabi.
We visited some great architectural landmarks that have been part of this Arab Country -Abu Dhabi.
The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
I always visit my cousin during my weekly off and I always pass by this iconic architecture.
Since I don't have time to visit and have a limited time as well.
Well. This is my first time to visit the Grand Mosque.
Entrance
-Prepare to have enough extra memory storage on your phone and power bank :) First, we entered a vast security check before going inside the mosque. It's the same security process in the airport like putting those stuff on the X-RAY Scanner and people will be scanned as well.
Afterwards......
Here It Goes!
The Majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
WOW!
-All I can say.....
These are the outer structures of the Mosque.
Very Impressive Design.
Although the weather was really hot, I still managed to take a shot.
See for yourself.. :)
