Shiva and Krishna Mandir

Grand Mosque

Ali Ibn Abi Talib Mosque

Guru Nanak Darbar

Saint Mary’s Catholic Church
Sheikh Rashid himself laid the foundation of this church, however, the catholic population in Dubai quickly outgrew the church and there was eventually a requirement of a bigger church. Therefore Saint Mary’s Catholic Church was brought into existence.
Jumeirah Mosque
A very famous project by Sheikh Mohammed, “Open Doors, Open minds’ ‘, has been realized in Jumeirah Mosque which opens itself to individuals belonging to any faith. Adorned with white stone exterior, this mosque looks extremely pristine.
Derasar Jain Temple
With a growing Jain population in Dubai, this temple was built to commemorate Jain deities. For the Jain population in Dubai, this temple holds a very high place, as it is the only place where they could go and express their gratitude to their gods.
