London Central Mosque, Islamic prayer center in Regent's Park, London, England
The London Central Mosque features a grand golden dome and accommodates over 5,000 male worshippers in its main prayer hall with women's balcony above.
King George VI donated the land for this mosque in exchange for a plot in Cairo where an Anglican cathedral would be constructed by King Farouk of Egypt.
The mosque's interior displays sacred geometric patterns in its dome, complemented by stained glass windows, a chandelier, and expansive prayer carpets.
The mosque complex contains a halal café, bookshop, and Islamic Cultural Centre, serving the needs of Muslim residents and visitors in central London.
The construction, completed in 1977 at a cost of £6.5 million, received financial support from Saudi Arabian royalty and international contributors.
