Blue Mosque..(Subhanallah ^_^)

Referred to locally as the ‘Blue Mosque,’ the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah mosque is undoubtedly one of Malaysia’s most stunning structures. Blue mosque is the country’s biggest and Southeast Asia second biggest mosque. 

Decorative Islamic calligraphy dominates the edges surrounding the dome and main prayer hall, while the interior architecture exhibits ethnic Malay design elements.

At over 142 metres, its minarets are the tallest in the world and its magnificent blue dome rates as one of the largest. Both the dome and the main prayer hall are embellished with Islamic calligraphy. Surrounding the mosque are the New Municipal Council Tower, the State Library, the Museum and the beautifully landscapes Lake Gardens of Shah Alam. 

The mosque not only excels in its structures and craftsmanship but also in its call for prayers. The mosque can accommodate a maximum of 24,000 worshippers. The spiritual sanctuary houses nine galleries that exhibit a rich array of Islamic arts such as calligraphy, sculptures, paintings and architecture. Occasionally, traditional Islamic performances are held here.
