About
The King Faisal Mosque stands in central Sharjah, a short walk from the heritage area. It is named after King Faisal, the former ruler of Saudi Arabia. Its large modern building is a landmark of the city centre, and it remains a busy place of worship, so visitors should come outside prayer times and dress modestly. Its size makes it easy to spot from the surrounding streets.
Best time to go: View it from outside on your way from the old town towards the Khalid Lagoon.
