Research of Masjid Jamek Mosque

Jamek Mosque was built a little over a century ago - in 1909 - and today is considered as the oldest mosque in Kuala Lumpur. Tourists visiting the shrine, as a rule, are impressive at once in a few moments. First, it is an architectural style. The Jamek Mosque was built in the best eastern traditions of Moorish architecture and has an extraordinary look. The monastery is made in two colors - red and white, which also gives it a special, solemn look. But when I looked at the mosque, walked around, I felt exactly black and white shades. Possible because the mosque is very old and this year it will be 110 years old. Two minarets and three large silver domes rise above the Jamek Mosque. It is curious that the construction of the monastery was not in charge of the Malaysian, but the English architect - Arthur Hubback. There are some pictures that I did :

Secondly, it is worth noting the unusual location of this Kuala Lumpur landmark. Jamek Mosque is located almost at the confluence of two rivers - Gombak and Klang. The monastery is surrounded by coconut palms and because of this it looks like a kind of island of peace and harmony in the middle of a noisy metropolis. By the way, until 1965, the Jamek Mosque was considered the main one in Malaysia, until the Negara National Mosque was built in Kuala Lumpur.

While I was studying the mosque and its history, I came across a video where the architecture and scale of the mosque can be seen more clearly and clearly.
