Kota Kinabalu City Mosque

~ Wanderer

One of the tourist destination n Kota Kinabalu is the City Mosque .It is a few minute drive from the city center accessible by car.

it is called a floating mosque but it is not really floating . It is surrounded by man made pond
every guest is encourage to wear abaya (gown) and hijab(scarf) which can be rented at the entrance gate
major religion in Sabah is Islam . Guest from other faith is welcomed to enter their place of worship called mosque
Islamic architecture and interior design is so unique that you can easily identify it from other non islam edifice
crescent moon and star, symbols of islam religion
at the grounds of Kota Kinabalu City mosque

Is it worth visiting? for me yes. I came from a christian family and I love to explore places of worship other than my own. It is nice to experience the warmth and welcoming gesture from other beliefs and the respect to each others faith
