Djenné Mosque in Mali

Auwal Mosque in Bokaap, Cape Town, South Africa. The first mosque established in South Africa (1794)

Djenné is home to the world's largest mud mosque. This is more impressive than it may sound: the building is huge, and manages to be elegant both up close and from a distance. Two times a year all the city's residents drop everything, cart mudup from the nearby Bani river, and together they re-pack the Mosque walls
