I would be interested to know too since I am under the impression that we Muslims can pray almost anywhere (including multi-faith prayer rooms in various institutions) and mosques are meant to be transparent, open and inviting spaces for congregation where anyone can enter as long as certain codes are respected (hijab, modesty, voice control, cleanliness; and no pictures, statues, singing and dancing).
Anyone?
[edit: just to be clear, I'm not saying mosques are open for worship for non-Muslims... just that they can enter it. Certainly, in NA I've known mosques to hold open-houses and invite non-Muslims into the mosque to learn about Islam... I know in some Muslim countries, as long as the 'tourist' respects the space and its importance for Muslims, they are allowed to enter and 'check-it-out'... again, you see news reporters, cameramen and photographers entering mosques too.]
