It stands on a promontory looking out to the Atlantic, which can can be seen through a gigantic glass floor with room for 25,000 worshippers. A further 80,000 can be accommodated in the mosque's courtyard. Its minaret is the world's tallest at 210 metres (689 ft). Don't forget to come to this place...
