Zahir Mosque In Alor Setar

Malaysia is a Muslim country, plenty of mosques in every city, town. Alor Setar has one of Malaysia's nicest examples, located right on the Main Street. It was built in 1912, making the mosque one of the oldest in the country. Zahir Masjid carries the distinction with grandeur.

Ready to head in. Or stop to pose for a picture.

Details. Prayer tools, beads and books.

The fine dome. A tip to modernity, Mecca on the closed circuit.
