Vast Islamic mosque in Regent's Park.
With its huge, gold dome, the London Central Mosque gleams out above the dense green canopy of Regent’s Park. Designed in 1978 by Sir Frederick Gibberd the mosque is linked to the Islamic cultural centre and continues an active and popular place of worship for Londoners. Inside, the centre’s appeal rests mainly in its simplicity (a huge chandelier and expansive carpet form the only real furnishings), its cavernous space and meditative atmosphere. Shoes are not allowed in the mosque and, as different sets of bare or stockinged feet pad gently along the floor, an air of contemplative calm pervades. The main hall can hold over two thousand worshippers – and regularly does. Visitors are, however, still warmly welcomed. Please note: there is a separate gallery for women, who must cover their heads.
Best for:
Quiet appreciation of both Islamic faith and architecture.
