Great Mosque of Porto-Novo

Reviewed By 70ava - Beijing, China

Visiting many Islamic communities all over the world, we have never ever encountered a mosque that looks like a Brazilian church. It is amazing, colorful, magnificent writings in Arabic on the outside wall (look at the facade on the other side). A real gem. However, like all other old Portuguese building, it is crumbling. What a shame, such an incredible monument.
