This mosque is a stunning place to visit, offering a unique glimpse into Nigeria’s religious and cultural heritage. The architecture is impressive, with a golden dome and tall minarets that stand out against the skyline. Inside, the intricate calligraphy and mosaic designs add to the sense of beauty and tranquility. The mosque is welcoming to both Muslims and non-Muslims (outside of prayer times), allowing everyone to appreciate its serene atmosphere and remarkable design. A highlight for many is the view at sunset—it’s truly a sight to see. The only drawback is that some areas feel a bit restricted for non-Muslim visitors, which is understandable but worth noting. A guide can enhance the experience, providing more context and ensuring a respectful visit. Overall, it’s a must-see landmark and well worth a visit for anyone interested in architecture, culture, or religion.

Visited the National Mosque shopping mall at the 3rd Gate National Mosque and I must say I didn't expect to get the best and qualitative perfumes there at an affordable rate. The customer service was top notch and they were so kind. There are a lot of parking spaces, I got so many items from the mall and I will definitely be visiting again and again...

It’s a stunning mosque from outside. Since I am a woman i was unable to enter. The doors and roof are made of bronze. Absolutely spectacular.

The National Mosque, located in Abuja, Nigeria, is an impressive architectural and cultural landmark that is worth a visit. The mosque, which was completed in 2009, is one of the largest mosques in Africa and can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers at once. The design of the mosque is striking, featuring a mix of modern and traditional elements. The central dome is surrounded by four minarets, and the interior is adorned with intricate designs and calligraphy. Visitors are welcome to explore the mosque, although it's important to dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering. The mosque is a peaceful and serene place, and it's easy to spend an hour or two admiring the architecture and soaking up the atmosphere. While the National Mosque is a religious site, it's also a cultural landmark that provides an insight into Islam in Nigeria. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and they are happy to answer any questions you might have about the mosque and Islam in general. Overall, the National Mosque is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Abuja. Its stunning architecture, peaceful atmosphere, and cultural significance make it a truly unique and unforgettable experience.
