#Melaka Straits Mosque Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Melaka Straits Mosque ✨
Melaka straits mosque is one of beautiful mosques in the World. A unique mosque that appears to float on the sea. You can choose to admire the sea near the mosque or go inside to visit. If you want to go inside, there are dress codes for both men and women. If you don't meet the dress code requirements, you can go to the gate where there is a room that provides jubah and headscarves for free. After visiting, you can return them to the same place.
As soon as I entered the mosque, I was struck by the intricate designs and beautiful architecture. The interior of the mosque is adorned with stunning chandeliers, stained glass windows, and elegant calligraphy.
It's a good experience, and the surroundings are clean. You can enjoy the sea breeze, watch the sunset, and take some photos. Overall the scenery from the mosque is amazing. ❤️

Unique Double Equilateral Archways 🌙
#malaka Malacca Straits Mosque or Masjid Selat Melaka is located in an island off the coast of Melaka.
🤩I must say that the mosque has unique architectural design especially its gigantic double equilateral archways. It’s amazing!
The mosque is big and has two separate sections for male and female. Mosque is Clean and have adequate facilities for muslim to perform prayers & clean toilets. Ample parking outside.
For non-muslims or tourists, there is a dress code to follow if to enter the mosque area or inside the building, but not up to prayer hall. Nevertheless, you can walk around outside and take photos.
👉🏻 I suggest a quick tour here to observe the unique architecture and islamic engraving of the mosque.

Melaka Straits Mosque -a floating mosque
This golden-domed beauty is known as the Melaka Straits Mosque or Masjid Selat Melaka. It is built on the man-made Malacca Island, overlooking the Malacca Strait, one of the longest and busiest straits in the world. The mosque is built on stilts above the sea, with its minaret designed to resemble a lighthouse. When the water level is just right, the mosque looks as though it is floating making it a popular destination for tourists, photographers and locals.
The mosque’s design speaks to both Malay and Middle Eastern architecture with its striking golden dome, stained glass windows and traditional Islamic motifs

Melaka Straits Mosque 🕌✨
Nice peaceful place to see calm sea and spend me time. Only if u want to visit mosque from inside or its outside premises you have to follow dress code. Fully covered and its described on gates for both genders. 😎
The architecture of this mosque is unique , combination from Middle Eastern and Malay. It is also sometimes referred to as the floating mosque when the water level increases the surrounding area. The security guard is very friendly and helpful. He explained how to visit mosque. 👣
Definitely a place worth exploring when in Malacca!

A MUST VISIT PLACE IN MELAKA
This is a must visit place in Melaka. It gives me peace when I look at it. Although I haven't been inside the mosque itself.
You can also just sit there on the stones along the shore and wait for the sun to set.
Breathtaking mosque, amazing picturesque. Location is away from busy roads hence it becomes calm, soothing and surreal experience.
Best time would be sunrise 🌞 sunset ⛅
The Floating Mosque Melaka
The best place to check in and take photo, especially during the sunset
Malacca Maritime Mosque, beautiful
The maritime mosque located in the Straits of Malacca is located in the prestigious ancient city of Malacca, the longest and busiest strait in the world. The blue sky is blue and beautiful, and when the water level is high, the whole building is like floating on the water. The golden dome of the blue and white building is very spectacular. Into the temple, you should change into the dress of the temple and wear a towel to barefoot and feel the charm of religion.
I love the colorful Nanyang style of Malacca | Photographed holy place recommended!
said that Malacca has not been to Malaysia. Malacca is the oldest city in the history of Malaysia. In 2008, it was listed by the United Nations as a World Cultural Heritage List, and its status is equivalent to Chiang Mai in Thailand. This trade city with a history of nearly 700 years has always been a place for colonialists because of its good nautical location and abundant spices and other resources. Zheng He went to the Western Ocean seven times and stopped there five times. It is said that the first generation of Chinese followed Zheng He from Malacca to Malaysia, and their descendants were called Nyonya. Because of this historical background, you can see the real Nanyang-style architecture in today's Malacca, and shoot a variety of Nanyang-style movies!

1[Malacca Strait Mosque]
Strait Mosque is a bit far from Jonker Street. It takes about half an hour to take a taxi, but taxis are not willing to take a taxi. If you want to give the driver some money, let them wait at the door, or they can't find the car. The building is very beautiful, the white roof is golden, the multicolored glass, a beautiful building is built in the sea, and it seems to float when the water level is high. Quietly guarding the people here. The mosque was built on the seashore. It is also a maritime mosque. To enter the temple, you need to take off your shoes and wear a robe. Opposite the mosque is the world's busiest Strait of Malacca. You can see boats in the distance. In fact, 70% of the ships are shipped to China.

[How to get there] Take a taxi, about 20 minutes

For a lucky day, come to the best strait mosque in Malacca for a sunset. The driver with the wrong way finally sent us here in the moment the sun fell. From sunset to light, this is a long process, and here you can see the best location in the Straits of Malacca. Looking at this white building like a floating building, listening to the sound of the waves, the sky turned from blue to pink and purple, and finally turned into a black sky.
Malacca This is a legendary place,
and this strait mosque, floating architecture, is even more fantastic in the sunset of Malacca. The
mosque is located on the artificial island in the urban area of Malacca. The main hall is located on the sea. When the tide is high, it is like a floating island. The most beautiful moment is the sunset. Tourists gather on one side of the dam to enjoy the sunset. The west descends slowly from the sea level, and the afterglow of the evening glows against the entire sky, the color of the rendering, the distant ship is sailing, the legendary color of the Straits of Malacca, the night falls, the lights of the mosque are lit, solemn and serene, At the moment, the sound of chanting came out of the horn, and the surroundings were so calm. The
Strait Mosque is the most beautiful place to enjoy the sunset in Malacca. Every day in the evening, there will be many tourists from all over the world. The artificial island is only a few kilometers away from the city. It is recommended to take a taxi directly, about 10 MYR.
About Malacca, you don't need to sign up for a trip from Kuala Lumpur. It is recommended to travel by yourself. There are a lot of bus shuttles to and from Malacca in Kuala Lumpur. It takes about two hours to arrive. The city of Malacca is small, the spots are concentrated, you can walk on it. One night, experience the sunset of the strait mosque, returning the next day, this trip is more reasonable.
Malacca Island Landmark Buildings | Malacca Strait Mosque (1553)
Malacca Strait Mosque (1553). The Malacca Strait Mosque, located on the artificially constructed Malacca Island, was built between 2003 and 2006. The architectural design combines Malay and Arabic styles, with the main structure over the sea, connected to the land, and supported by reinforced concrete pillars.
The central part features a golden dome, surrounded by glass facades shaped like sails, and at each corner, there are columnar towers. The building is entirely white, and when the water level rises, it appears as though the structure is floating on the sea.
A day trip to Malacca is too rushed!
When you come to Malaysia, you must go to Malacca. I thought Malacca was just a check-in for landmark buildings such as the Dutch Red House, but I didn't expect it to be very lively, with night markets, cruise ships, and coffee shops by the small river. It's a whole place for petty bourgeoisie.
Itinerary:
Take the bus from Kuala Lumpur, the one-way fare is 10-15RM, the journey is about 1.5-2 hours, it is recommended to buy the return ticket when you go to Malacca for a day trip.
Kuala Lumpur-Malacca: Buy tickets at TBS station, choose Melaka as the terminal.
Malacca-Kuala Lumpur: Buy tickets at Malacca Central Station, choose TBS as the terminal.
Take a Grab from Malacca station to Chicken Farm Street, simply stroll around this street and come back to this street to visit the night market in the evening. It is recommended to come on weekends, the night market is super lively, with all kinds of food stalls and small stalls selling trinkets.
Take photos at the Dutch Red House, which is a landmark building in Malacca. Walk along this street of the Dutch Red House, go up to the top of the mountain, and you will see St. Diego Castle. At the foot of the mountain is the Sultan's Palace.
Take a Grab to the Strait Mosque, blow the sea breeze by the sea, watch the sunset, take a taxi back to Chicken Farm Street to visit the night market, and sit in the Bar by the river is very comfortable.
Tips: We took the bus to Malacca at 11:00, arrived at Chicken Farm Street at 13:30, started shopping, and took the bus back to Kuala Lumpur at 21:30. The last bus back to Kuala Lumpur is 23:30. Malacca·Central County
