Al Yassin Mosque, Baghdad

4.6
#1 of 7 in Historic Sites in Baghdad
Religious Site · Landmark
See a jewel of Islamic architecture at Al Yassin Mosque, whose golden dome and four golden minarets remain a shining landmark on Baghdad's skyline. Years of reconstruction have restored the iconic mosque to its former glory after destruction during the U.S.-led invasion. Visit the graves of 8th-century Shiite Imam Musa Al-Kadhim, and 9th-century Imam Muhammad Al-Jawad, descendant of the Prophet Mohammed. At the time of prayers the mosque fills with visitors. Expect a high level of security and safety measures in place. To find out how to plan a trip to Baghdad, use our trip itinerary maker.

    Most amazing place for spiritual cleansing and worship. The place is sparkling clean with many shops and restaurants all lover. Please don't take a lot of money with you, some people have low morals and will steal from you with you even noticing. The lady that works inside stole over $500 usd from my mother couple days ago.
