The first thing you see is a pale blue roof folded like a closed umbrella and a tall minaret. Outside prayer times non-Muslim visitors are welcome, and anyone in shorts or short sleeves can borrow a robe at the entrance. Walking barefoot between white marble pillars with the light coming in is short but sticks with you. Entry is free.
