Have you ever visited a Mosque to look what's inside? I've never been to a Church, I would like to explore one for fun some day

The one I visited was just an empty room for people to pray in, with the niche on one side indicating the direction of Mecca. My understanding is that this would describe most mosques. I would expect that the larger ones might have storage areas or administrative offices unless those are separate buildings. The Great Mosque of Mecca has an interior courtyard with that big black box you see in photos of the Hajj.
I've been in many churches and synagogues. All of them have a sanctuary or special room where prayer services are held, along with offices for the clergy, other offices and storerooms, and often classrooms for Sunday school, Hebrew school, Bible study, AA meetings, etc., and usually a kitchen, and of course restrooms and anything else you would expect to find in a large building where people gather.
