Great place to visit. Very interesting to learn more about Islam and the Muslim culture of the past and today. Very friendly staff there, I felt immediately home. They gave me clear explanation about the Arabic culture and religion. The virtual reality tour was awesome to do. This place is central located and easy to find. Many languages available for reading the texts and to take some literary with you.
