World's largest carpet


World's largest carpet for Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahayan mosque in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

what it said was the world's largest handwoven carpet, worth $5.8 million and larger than a football pitch.

The carpet, adorned with green and cream colors, was made in 18 months from 38 tons of wool and cotton by 1,200 weavers in three villages in northeastern Iran.

The carpet, measuring 5,625 square meters (60,546 square feet), was made up of nine pieces that will be stitched together in the UAE to cover the floor of the central praying area of the massive mosque.
