Lonely Planet review for Grand Mosque

Also known as Masjed Al-Kabir, and located opposite Sief Palace, the Grand Mosque was opened in 1986 and cost around KD14 million to construct. The largest of the city's 800 mosques, it boasts Kuwait's highest minaret (74m) and can accommodate up to 5000 worshippers in the main hall, with room for another 7000 in the courtyard. Prebooked tours are possible between 09:00 and 16:00 Saturday to Wednesday and it is respectful to dress modestly covering arms and legs.
