Begin with the waterfront

Walk the centre at a measured pace, with time for the river and the mosque setting. Check current museum opening and plan transport for visits farther from the centre.

Religious places have their own rhythm

Ask about visitor hours, suitable dress and photography before entering. Services and Friday prayer affect access.

Give the day room to unfold

Choose one main outing for each day and leave time for meals and the journey back. Confirm access, transport and any guided arrangements before setting out.
