    Definitely a cool experience! The guides spoke excellent English and you could ask them anything and they would tell you. A beautiful place and very educational to learn about different cultures and religions!
  • By Abdulaziz Al-Hadban
    Beautiful atmosphere. The largest mosque in Kuwait and the 8th largest around the world. A must visit for anyone visiting Kuwait or generally anyone who has never been. There are tour-guides who can take you around the mosque. Anyone looking to learn the basics of Islam or get a brief on Islam in general should pass by.
