“You may find that a Mosque may not be happy if a non-Muslim walks in” I’m not aware of any mosques that prohibit non-Muslims, outside of the holy cities (Mecca/Medina), though you would need to dress appropriately and act respectfully.
Jehovas’ Witnesses also welcome new people (aka potential converts). Mormon temples have places that are off-limits, however - even to ordinary Mormons. There are some Hindu temples that prohibit women, and many places of worship expect men and women to be segregated. So it’s not an access tag.
