This architectural work of art is one the world’s largest mosques, with a capacity for an astonishing 40,000 worshippers. It features 82 domes, over a 1,000 columns, 24 carat gold gilded chandeliers and the world's largest hand knotted carpet. The main prayer hall is dominated by one of the world’s largest chandeliers –10 metres in diameter, 15 metres in height and weighing twelve tonnes. The mosque's first ceremony was the funeral of its namesake, Sheikh Zayed, who is buried at the site.

Reflective pools surround the mosque, amplifying its beauty. The striking white and gold colours shining in the sun are transformed at night by a unique lightning system which reflects the phases of the moon.

Enjoy the scenery :)

I have it. Thanks!:-)

[claudiaz]

Finally I get a chance again to take part in your great contest: I have been so busy with the biographies of the photographers. I have very few ladies on my list would you like to take part? Please let me know I would love to do a biography on you! anyway here is my entry. I wrote a post about it because the story behind it so interesting. - https://steemit.com/wiwcontest/@claudiaz/an-artists-dream-casapueblo-wiw-contest

[dmcamera]

Amazing architecture! Thanks for asking about doing a biography. I'm not sure how much time I will have, as I am cutting back a bit on the time spent on Steemit so that I can dedicate more time to my photography business. I'm also supposed to be semi-retired, so I'm trying to take more time out just to enjoy life. LOL!

[claudiaz]

well we can post yours in the next few days, all have to give is some links where I can get some info on you and access to some photos. It wont take too much of your time! It would just nice to some ladies, because my list, although very long consists mainly of men! let me know either way! I understand where you are coming we are doing the same, taking it a bit easier.

[dmcamera]

Will give it some thought and will let you know.

[claudiaz]

no problem at all, have a nice weekend!

[dmcamera]

And you too! :-)
