    Great museum explaining the history of Islam. My personal tour guide was awesome. I would recommend this attraction to others wanted to know more about Islam/Muslin culture.

    The first museum in the country to focus on Muslim culture.
  • By MH M
    Enjoyed the visuals and cultural displays. When we went Moorish Spain and Timbuktu were highlighted. Great experience to learn history of Islamic contributions to the world and how cultures live together in peace.
