Hamoudi Mosque

The third name on the list of the best places to visit in Djibouti that Toplist has compiled for you is the Hamoudi Mosque. Hamoudi Mosque is one of the city's oldest mosques, having been built in 1906. The mosque has a capacity of roughly 1000 people and is very important to the country. On the outside, the mosque is extremely colorful, with predominantly white walls but also green, yellow, brown, and blue on the mosque's lone minaret. With white and green walls, stone carvings, enormous wooden doors, and yellow-arched windows, it is reminiscent of the much older Abbasid style.


Despite its location near a tiny market and a busy intersection, the mosque is a busy sanctuary with a capacity of 1,000 people. Hamoudi Mosque provides a unique and spectacular skyline of the city as one of the few city attractions for travelers to observe while in Djibouti's capital. Don’t forget to put Hamoudi Mosque at the top of your itinerary.
