Muhammad Ali Mosque Tours

There is a brass clock tower in the middle of the northwestern riwak, which was presented to Muhammad Ali by King Louis Philippe of France in 1845. The clock was reciprocated with the obelisk of Luxor now standing in Place de la Concorde in Paris. Funny thing is that the clock has never worked... #Cairo #Egypt

The great Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha or Alabaster Mosque is a mosque situated in the Citadel of Cairo in Egypt and commissioned by Muhammad Ali Pasha between 1830 and 1848.

Situated on the summit of the citadel, this Ottoman mosque, the largest to be built in the first half of the 19th century, is, with its animated silhouette and twin minarets, the most visible mosque in Cairo. #Egypt #Cairo
Such a beautiful citadel! Make sure to dress respectfully and take your shoes off!


With their curved domes, tall minarets and mosaics, mosques are often some of the most beautiful buildings in a destination. Muhammad Ali Mosque is one house of worship on many travelers' itineraries.

Situated in Al-Khalifa, this Muslim temple is well worth including on your itinerary. But you'll find plenty more to check out in this area. Egyptian Museum, Khan el-Khalili, and Cairo Tower aren't too far from Muhammad Ali Mosque.
