Bobescui, accompanied by Dr. Yousef Al Obaidli, Director-General of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Centre, toured the halls and external corridors, and was briefed about the mosque's message of coexistence and tolerance.

The tour also showcased the mosque's unique collections, showcasing the finest art and architectural designs from Islamic civilisation throughout the ages.

Bobescui also visited the tomb of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.

At the end of the tour, he was presented with a copy of the book Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque: A Stream of Peace that highlights the mosque's architectural art through a collection of photos that won the "Spaces of Light" award.
