Further Distractions Gurgi Mosque The interior of Tripoli’s most attractive mosque is crafted with Egyptian and Greek marble, Moroccan stone and Tunisian tiles. The towering white minaret of this 20th century house of prayers has two balconies, with locals claiming that it was constructed this way in a bid to outshine the Ahmed Paha Mosque.
