Yes, Sunni Muslims can visit Karbala.
Access to Karbala for Sunni Muslims
Karbala, a significant Shia Muslim holy city in Iraq, is open to visitors of all faiths. The shrines within Karbala, which hold immense religious importance for Shia Muslims, are not restricted to members of a specific sect. As stated in the provided reference, "All these Holy places are open to humanity as the Imams who are buried in Karbala…were the Imams of humanity. Not just Sunnis visit these Holy places but believers of all the religions are permitted in these shrines."
This inclusivity extends to Sunni Muslims, who are welcome to visit and pay their respects, though the significance of the sites may differ in their religious perspective. The open nature of these holy sites promotes religious tolerance and interfaith understanding.
