Al Fateh Grand Mosque, one of the largest mosques in the world, is a major attraction in Manama, Bahrain. It's known for its stunning architecture, including a massive fiberglass dome and intricate calligraphy. The mosque is generally accessible to tourists of all faiths outside of prayer times. Visiting is often done solo or in small groups, though guided tours are available to provide deeper insights into Islamic culture and the mosque's features. Dress modestly (women typically need to cover their hair) and be respectful of religious customs. There are generally no seasonal restrictions, but it's best to avoid visiting during prayer times or major religious holidays when it may be more crowded or closed to non-Muslims. Entry is usually free, but donations are welcome. A typical visit lasts 1-2 hours.
