Stunning view outside and one of the most famous mosques in erbil.

The mosk is off course very beautiful and from the outside, sadly we were not allowed to look inside the mosk as shown in the pictures. There was only a little space open for prayer that day

One of the most beautiful mosque in Erbil. It seems to be a blend of the Turkish and Persian styles. The daily Imam has a great voice and the interior is just as stunning as the outside. The only problem is that it closes 15 minutes after each prayer, even Magrib, so you can't stay there from Magrib to Isha

One of the most beautiful mosques in the world

Jalil Khayat Mosque, 60 Meter St, Erbil 🕌 It was built in 2015.Usually tourist who are not Muslim can not see inside,but this time,my tour guide negotiated with security police. Women must need a hijab=scarf on the head when enter.

I would love to elaborate on this mosque but it wasn't open at the time I got there (at about 8am). From the outside, the mosque is actually pretty nice and large. There are two locked gates that I would assume are the two entrances into the mosque. There is a huge parking lot for vehicles, but go slowly into it since there's no slope or ramp to "ease" into the lot. There was also a homeless guy sleeping right in front of the mosque on the street. I'll have to update this if I get the chance to visit again.
