Grand Bur Dubai Masjid (Bur Dubai Grand Mosque)

What to Do in Old Dubai: Our Guide

"The Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding (SMCCU), a non-profit organization located in one of the oldest neighborhoods of Dubai, offers interesting tours of the Diwan Mosque. You'll begin with a visit to the mosque, which is otherwise unavailable to non-Muslims, before returning to the SMCCU house for a "cultural discovery" session paired with Arabic tea, coffee, and dates in a beautiful traditional Arabic majlis (sitting area). Thanks to an "open doors open minds" policy, guests have the opportunity to ask questions about Islam and Bedouin culture." - Dylan Essertier, Laura Ratliff
