About

The Central Mosque of Almaty is one of the largest in Kazakhstan. It was built in 1999 on the site of an earlier mosque, with a white marble facade, a golden dome and minarets. It holds thousands of worshippers and hosts Friday prayers, including one led by the Supreme Mufti of Kazakhstan.

The mosque welcomes people of all faiths who want to learn about Islamic culture and architecture. It stands next to the Green Bazaar, so the two are easy to combine.
