Aside from its huge size and exquisite beauty, one of the beautiful elements of this mosque is that it has two identical slim minarets, top-covered with lead as the mosque domes and semi-domes. Enjoy the panoramic view of the city from the mosque, where you can see the Giza pyramids on clear days.

Another beautiful mosque is worth visiting, the mosque of Ibn Tulun(866-869). This is the most well-preserved one in Cairo. The mosque has a unique tower. It is one of a kind all over Egypt, where the staircase is outside the tower. You will also visit the Gayer Anderson museum inside the mosque's walls.
