Malaysia's first true floating mosque, built 1993-1995 on the Kuala Ibai lagoon about 4 km from central Kuala Terengganu and opened in July 1995 by Sultan Mahmud Al-Muktafi Billah Shah. White marble, ceramics, mosaic and bomanite finishes make the mosque appear to float on the lagoon; the complex covers roughly 5 acres and holds about 2,000 worshippers.
見どころ・体験
The First True Floating Mosque
Built between 1993 and 1995 and opened by Sultan Mahmud Al-Muktafi Billah Shah in July 1995, the Tengku Tengah Zaharah Mosque sits on the Kuala Ibai lagoon so that its white shell seems to hover on water — widely cited as Malaysia's first genuinely floating mosque, preceding the better-known Malacca Straits Mosque.
White Marble on a Lagoon
The design combines marble, ceramics, mosaic tiles and bomanite paving across a roughly 5-acre complex with capacity around 2,000 worshippers. The lagoon causeway gives the classic postcard angle; sunset turns the white shell golden against the water.
- Kuala Ibai lagoon, ~4 km south of central Kuala Terengganu along Jalan Tengku Ampuan (beach road); short drive from the city.Free entry (donations welcome)
