Kuala Terengganu
Malaysia....
(view from the river)
The Crystal Mosque sits in a river overlooking a very quiet part of Kuala Terengganu (KT).
The outer white buildings leading to it are very elegant and the mosque itself -
unique brown/gold glass/crystal.
unique brown/gold glass/crystal.
The mosque is beautiful both in its architecture and surrounding. Situated on an island there's no doubt this is one of the beautiful mosques in Malaysia.
The foundation of the Crystal Mosque in the water provides a floating illusion for the Visitor due to its close proximity to the water provides reflections to the glass walls, minarets and domes, thus creates a prismatic and radiant exterior.
Sunset is probably the "Best" day to visit for a panoramic picture for photographer as the Sunset ray add lustrous color to the luminescent exterior reflects charm of the vibrant heritage and the idyllic nature that surround The Crystal Mosque
