Before we left Abu Dhabi for Dubai, we had to see the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. It is the third largest mosque, equipping over 40 000 worshippers in the space of 5 football fields. It really is a sight to see. 
There are many religious beliefs to respect whilst visiting the mosque. One of them is appropriate dress. Male and females must wear long trousers and shirts so as not to see any skin aside from hands and feet. Females are asked to dress in a traditional Jilbāb and Hijabs as it is believed that females should be modest. 
I didn't know how to wrap the hijab, so a lovely girl showed me. 
Ah, much better. 
Can't even tell it's me. Women cannot take photos in front of the mosque without being dressed in their religious cloth. Men, on the hand, can be photographed. 
Houses the grandest chandelier in the world.
