Lakemba Mosque, Islamic center in Lakemba, Sydney, Australia.
The Imam Ali bin Abi Taleb Mosque features traditional Islamic architectural elements with a main prayer hall capable of accommodating thousands of worshippers at once.
Construction of the mosque began in 1972 and completed in 1977, with financial support from international donors including contributions from the Saudi royal family.
The mosque congregation has evolved from primarily Lebanese Muslims to include members from Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Somali, and Southeast Asian communities in Sydney.
Visitors can schedule guided tours Monday through Thursday by submitting a booking form at least one week in advance for groups of ten or more people.
In recent years, the Lakemba Mosque became the first solar-powered mosque in Australia, demonstrating environmental responsibility in religious infrastructure.
