It's the Great Mosque of Jaffa, an architectural treasure with a rich cultural tapestry and history of the old city, way before it became incorporated into the current day Tel Aviv. It's one of the most remarkable landmarks of Jaffa with its imposing minaret. It's a prominent Ottoman Period architecture. The original mosque was built around early 1700's. The current structure was completed around the 19th century. Along with minaret, the two domes are a draw to this old architecture. The mosque remains a place of prayer for the faithful. According to locals whom I've had pleasure of speaking with, it is also a great place peaceful respite from the daily rustlings of modern Jaffa, and a cool rest from the summer heat.

An incredible architect in terms of architecture… A Mosque built to integrate people rather than dividing them. Whoever did it for a hundred years, whoever put a brick, may Allah be pleased with him. The Mahmoudiyah Mosque or the Great Mosque is located in the center of the city of Jaffa, opposite the Clock Tower. It is a central and important mosque in terms of its location and because of its large size. There is a large internal yard for prayer. It is visited by tourists from inside and outside, especially in the month of Ramadan and holidays. The mosque has undergone major and radical renovations, which improved its appearance from the outside. And inside too..

Mahmoudiya Mosque is the largest and most significant mosque in Jaffa, now part of the larger city of Tel Aviv. It is composed of a complex of buildings arranged around two large courtyards and a third, smaller, courtyard. The buildings, gates, and courtyards were built at different stages throughout the 18th and 19th centuries while Palestine was under Ottoman rule. It is a must visit place for Jaffa / Tel Aviv.

I was there at night, strolling Jaffa narrow streets when I came by this place. Unlike other reviewers, I haven't encountered any problem as I was alone and could admire the place all by myself. All Jaffa or Yafo, is a magical place by night. Just take a look at the pictures.

A well worth place to visit of Muslim worship. Imam & staff were very polite. We stayed in city for 5hrs and due to extreme humidity we ended up staying inside the mosque after Zohar pray till we left to airport. We were offered watermelons from staff. JazakAllah
