Crystal Mosque

As we were crusing up the river, we were greeted by the spectacula Crystal Mosque or Masjid Kristal located at Islamic Heritage Park ( Taman Tamadun Islam ) on the island of Wan Man. Constructed between 2006 and 2008, the mosque was officially opened on 8 February 2008 by 13th Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin of Terengganu.

Like the Floating Mosque, the Crystal Mosque can also hold thousands of people and is popular destination during the fasting month for Tarawikh prayers.

here's some pictures I got, one when I was crusing down the river, and one taken on a brighter day with better skies!
