This is an old mosque that has been recently restored on the same site where it stood for many years. It is one of the largest mosques of the Saudi Kingdom. It has a seating capacity for up to 17,000 people and two libraries. The structure is made of exquisite brown stone, and when it’s lit up at night it appears to be golden. A truly impressive sight to see. The mosque is connected to the Judgment Palace by two bridges.
