TENGKU TENGAH ZAHARAH MOSQUE - TERENGGANU

 

 

MASJID TENGKU TENGAH ZAHARAH

EAST COAST OF MALAYSIA

 

 

 

The Masjid Tengku Tengah Zaharah (Tengku Tengah Zaharah Mosque) is located about 4.5 kilometers away outside Kuala Terengganu and it is built on the estuary of the Terengganu River. Also known as the Floating Mosque, this is no ordinary mosque but one that is unique and said to be the only one of its kind in Malaysia. Not seen anywhere else in the region, this sparkling white mosque intermixes modern and traditional Moorish architectural designs, the mosque creates an illusion of itself as floating on water.

 

Beautifully lit up at night, the night view is simply awesome and this holy landmark is one of the most visited places of interest here in Terengganu besides being the most photographed as well. This grand mosque in Terengganu is also a top tourist attraction in Terengganu.
