Your virtual tour begins in the introductory area where the exhibition is introduced by a beautifully carved sculpture that serves as a metaphor for water, a poem thought to have been written by the great poet Rumi, and photographs of Muslims and places of prayer.



You can then enter the prayer space designed by architect Farouk Noormohamed, and continue on to the madrasa - a place of learning, where knowledge is shared. Finally you can visit the gallery where you can view objects that share calligraphy as a decorative element.
