Moscow cathedral mosque architecture is incredible

One of europes largest mosques on olimpiysky prospekt. Originally built in 1904, demolished in 2011, then reconstructed and reopened in 2015 with traditional islamic geometric patterns mixed with modern russian elements. Really stunning

Free to visit but dress modestly - long pants covered shoulders women need head covering. Remove shoes before prayer areas. Visit between prayers for best experience avoid Friday afternoon unless participating

Metro to prospekt mira then short walk. Minaret views over the city worth seeing even from outside
