Beautiful heritage mosque
Beautiful mosque close to Jonker street. Heritage site as well. Built in 1748. The design of the mosque is so unique. Don’t have to miss your prayers when roaming around near the Jonker street.

An unusual melange of influences
Doing some pre-reading will help you understand how unusual this mosque is in the Malaysian or even global context. Visitors are welcome inside but will be required to cover up appropriately. The architectural blend is pretty unique and the mosque is centrally located near other historical sites, which is useful.

Eclectic mix of architecture
The Kampung Kling Mosque is one of the oldest mosques in Malacca and one of many places of worship on the street known as Harmony street. For me, the building is notable for the eclectic mix of South East Asian, Chinese and Indian architectural styles. The main building of the mosque has clear South East Asian influences, while the gateway is Chinese influenced and the minaret is clearly influenced by Chinese style pagodas. Worth a quick look to see such an eclectic mix of architecture.
