Nizhnekamsk Cathedral Mosque
The Nizhnekamsk Cathedral Mosque is the central Muslim temple in Nizhnekamsk. It serves as an entire cultural and educational complex: a centre of culture and history, a library, and even a hotel are all situated here. The mosque itself has a futuristic look to it, but it is not by chance: the architects tried to build a temple for the growing city of young locals.
