Named for the Egyptian military hero Abdul Munim Riad, the Abdel-Moneim Riad Mosque stands as a prominent landmark in El Dahar, the Old Town of Hurghada. Constructed in the early 1970s, shortly after Riad’s death in action, the mosque features twin minarets that rise prominently above the traditional district. Visitors can explore the mosque’s architectural details and experience the cultural and religious significance it holds for the local community.
