Al Sahaba Mosque

Designed by Fouad Tawfik, Sharm El Sheikh's new mosque fuses Fatimid, Mamluk and Ottoman style elements into its architecture and interior design. Whether it all really gels or just looks like a weird mish-mash is up to the eye of the beholder but there's no denying that this mosque is Sharm's most spectacular piece of architecture.
