Beautiful mosque built in the water that appears floating. Nice scenery, well maintained and clean. There are security guards at the entrance. There is no shoes shelving. Places are very well labeled and signage. Men and women toilets are located on the left side. Women prayer areas are on the left, located at ground as well as upstairs. There are cleaned telekung available. The praying distance is less than one meter.

A beautiful and majestic mosque built on the edge of a lake. The surrounding area is serene and peaceful . Opposite the mosque is a wide beautiful lagoon for leisure, recreation activities and picnic for the local residents and visitors.
