Jalan Gertak Merah, Masjid Sultan Abu Bakar, 80000 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
This is a beautiful Muslim building -- the construction style is a little different from the traditional Muslims mosque i saw in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. The design style is unique -- the back side of this mosque , accorss the water another side is Singapore..
I recently visited Sultan Abu Bakar Johor Mosque, and while I was unable to explore it fully due to ongoing repairs and an event taking place, the experience was still worthwhile. From the front of the building, the mosque's architecture is truly impressive. The intricate details and grandeur of the design reflect the rich cultural heritage of Johor. Even though I couldn't enter the mosque or its grounds, I could appreciate its historical and architectural significance from afar. The surrounding area is well-maintained and offers a peaceful atmosphere, making it a pleasant place to visit despite the limitations during my visit. I hope to return in the future to fully explore and appreciate all that Sultan Abu Bakar Johor Mosque has to offer. It's definitely a landmark worth visiting for its beauty and historical importance.
The architecture of the mosque is astonishing. And the air is also refreshing. You can take a walk around this place. Unfortunately, the mosque was closed when l visited this place.
An immaculate mosque with such an interesting style of architecture. Reminds me of old Melaka times style. The inside was sparse and there were a few people having a prayer. The ocean view besides the mosque was also quite eye-catching as it was literally looking at another country.
Visited on a Friday, expected more from the mosque being managed by the Sultan family. The mosque isn't carpeted and is not air conditioned. But the fans make up for it, decent air flow. Highlight for this mosque would be that you'll get to meet the royals who come there for Jummah. Interesting experience indeed. Audio within the mosque needs improvement, only Khutbah had clear audio, the audio during the prayers seem to play outwards, so not very audible.
