Relax in the Moorish-style inner courtyard and treat yourself to a refreshing cup of delicious mint tea (EUR1.52) or coffee, accompanied by traditional oriental sweetmeats (from EUR1.52). The fabulous decor of wooden ceilings made from cedar of Lebanon, oriental carpets and fountains for performing ablutions whisks you off into another world, while an accompaniment of lush greenery makes this oasis all the more welcoming on a hot summer's day. Built in 1922, this fine Moroccan-style mosque with its own library and excellent restaurant is renowned for its Turkish baths.
