Placed on the site of an earlier war-damaged predecessor and surrounded by gardens, the huge Sheik Zamil Abdullah Al Zamil Mosque, built in 1995 by the Saudi sheik of the same name, forms the focal point of Shkodra's proud Muslim community. Still maintained by the Al Zamil family, the stunning building with its intricately decorated interior is scheduled for renovation in 2008. Visitors are welcome after prayer times; the entrance is on the side facing away from the Colosseo hotel. Note the old partisan war monument in the park behind the mosque.
