Descripción del sitio
The ruins of the Abdul Aziz mosque are located very close to the port in Mogadishu. This mosque, built by Abdul Aziz, was the first mosque built in Mogadishu. Today, the ruins are revered as a holy memorial to Abdul Aziz (The Bank Notes of Somalia—Part 2). Maps are somewhat conflicting as to where exactly these ruins are. One map coming from "The Earth and its Inhabitants: Africa" made in 1889 shows it to be north of Shangani. A more modern map, though, shows it to be closer to the close and a bit closer to the downtown area of the city. Both maps were provided by Mogadishu: Images from the Past, and here, the more modern map has been followed.
