Russia / Checenija / Shali, Shela / Shali / ул. Кадырова, 48

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov has inaugurated what authorities say is Europe’s largest mosque. Sitting just outside the capital of Grozny, the mosque can accommodate more than 30,000 people.
Opened by Kadyrov on Friday, the ‘Pride of Muslims’ mosque can accommodate 30,000 worshippers inside and up to 70,000 in its flower-decorated grounds. Kadyrov described the building as “unique in its design, and majestic in its size and beauty.”
Delegations from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Jordan, joined Kadyrov for the ceremony, along with more than 200 guests from 43 countries.
