Visiting Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque -Abu Dhabi UAE

Hey There!

-Ceddy Here. 

Today i'm going to share some experience that i had here in UAE.

I've been working here in United Arab Emirates for a year and still counting.

And my company  granted me a vacation leave for 1 month. And since i still don't have any plans going home in the Philippines. I decided to have a local leave instead together with my cousin.

Since its only for a month. I need to stretch out these numbers and try to visit some amazing places in the UAE  especially in  Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

First Destination will be in Abu Dhabi.

We visited some great architectural landmarks that's been part of this Arab Country -in Abu Dhabi.

The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque

I always visit my cousin during my weekly off and i always pass by to this iconic architecture.

Since i dont have time to visit and having a limited time as well.

Well. This is my first time to visit the Grand Mosque.

Entrance 

-Prepare to have enough extra memory storage on your phone and power bank :) First, we entered to a vast security check before going inside the mosque. Its the same security process in the airport like putting those stuffs on the X-RAY Scanner and people will be scanned as well.

Afterwards......

Here It Goes !  

The Majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque

These are the outer structure of the Mosque.

Very Impressive Design.

Although the weather really hot, I still managed to take a shot.
