Advice for visitors
As in any place of worship, appropriate dress is expected. Shoes must be removed before entering the prayer area. On Fridays and during major Islamic holidays (Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha), attendance is very high. Arriving early and using public transport is recommended, as parking in the surrounding area can be limited on these occasions. The mosque maintains a website where prayer times and events are regularly updated.
