The Authentic Minang Style Mosque; WONDERFUL
One of the best Indonesian Mosque. Beautiful and authentic minang taste in design. Beautiful ornament, lighting, specious prayers areas. The carpet is smooth. You also can find some of Minang traditional houses in the complex. Prayer in this mosque just like getting closer to God; peaceful!

Family Vacation to Padang
We visited this beautiful huge mosque with the unique Minangkabau design. But the toilets are not well maintained. Worth visiting the mosque

Wonderful building
This is a newly constructed mosque, but nonetheless the main mosque for West Sumatra. It is a beautiful work of art, inside and out. The superb exterior has a traditional spiked roof and many external ornaments. Inside is a beautiful domed space, with lovely Islamic patterns on walls and doors. The ceiling is superb. Provided you dress with due modesty and remove your shoes, you are welcome to visit (but not at prayer times, of course). Certainly worth doing so if you are in Padang.
