Mosques are living places of worship and keystones of Islamic art—from soaring domes and slender minarets to intricate tilework and calligraphy. Travelers discover architecture, etiquette, and access norms that vary by country and sect. Expect quiet courtyards, ablution fountains, and prayer rhythms shaping visiting times.
