Masjid Terapung - Floating Mosque of Kuala Terengganu

On every single trips to Terengganu, I've have always been mesmerized and fascinated by the  beauty of its unspoilt natural   sorrounding. The rustic kampung village, the picturesque coastline of swaying cocunut trees, white sandy beaches and blue sea.

If  you happen to be in Kuala Terengganu, then be prepared to be amazed aswell, especially if you're passing by it in the evening. Catch the sunset setting overlooking the floating mosque of Tengku Tengah Zaharah Mosque or better known as Masjid Terapung and you'll see what I mean.

This beautiful mosque is built on the estuary of Terengganu river is a sight to behold not only because of its beautiful architecture but also because it is floating on water. When the sunsets and the golden hues of the sun paints a lovely background to the majestic mosque.  Here's a picture of the beautiful mosque on a usual day and in the sunset above it.

Remarkable isn't it. And what is even remarkable is when you step inside the masjid. You feel so calm, peaceful and at ease. Its truly something that you should not miss in your visit to Terengganu.
