If you're on a budget, you can actually explore the nearby trails and viewpoints for free. The view from the hills around the mosque is breathtaking!

My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. The floor can get pretty hot, and you'll definitely be walking around a lot. I learned that the hard way!

I recommend bringing a water bottle. There's not much access to shops nearby, and it can get pretty warm, especially during the day.

I think you should be mindful of the prayer times, especially if you're visiting on a Friday. It can get quite busy, and you might miss some parts of the mosque while waiting.

If you want to avoid the heat, try visiting early in the morning, around 8 AM. The chill is really nice and you'll have way fewer people around.

My advice is to use public transport if possible. Parking can get really full, and it's a hassle to find a spot. The local buses run pretty well.

If you’re looking for a great photo op, head to the top of the stairs near the entrance. The angle of the monument against the skyline is amazing.
