About this Place Of Interest


Perched upon the shores of the man-made island of Pulau Melaka, the Melaka Straits Mosque gives the illusion of floating when the tide is high. It is an exotic blend of different architectural styles, with a Middle Eastern style central dome, four turrets topped with Malaysian style roofs, stained glass windows and a minaret that doubles as a lighthouse.
