Yes indeed the Masjid Jamek mosque is unique in that the architecture is unique especially its floor is not of carpet but marble. To me all mosque in the tropic should have marble or Ceramic tile floor and not carpet. This floor at the Masjid Jamek still as good and great to sit down and pray instead of the carpet which to me is always dirty and not that easy to clean. <br /><br />Personally I do not like the Putrajaya mosque since its architectural look like a copy of other mosque and it look like plastic to me. <br /><br />Well as you indicated tourists know more about a country mosque than the local since they often visit such place of worship in the tour of a country. <br /><br />Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-90114379363668631262012-05-24T22:25:59.037+08:002012-05-24T22:25:59.037+08:00Its history, architecture, beauty and age... all t...Its history, architecture, beauty and age... all these should make our unique Jameq mosque a major attraction for Malaysian and foreign tourists. But, when it comes to "mosque" foreign tourists in particular, I think, are more familiar with our National and Putrajaya mosques. Indeed, old mosques that we have throughout the country do exhibit their own unique character that we must cherish.Temukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02967943666125362059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-75338464388174146132012-05-20T09:18:15.556+08:002012-05-20T09:18:15.556+08:00basar, thanks for the visit and sharing your thou...basar, thanks for the visit and sharing your thoughts on the subject of this posting. <br /><br />The valuable information on the RM4.8 millions restoration works is indeed an add value to this posting. It is information like this that should be in Wikipedia and I hope it would eventually get there so that others may know of the amount of works and money the country put into to restoring it heritage for the future generation. <br /><br />Personally I felt this mosque is better designed and user friendly and have character than the Putrajaya mosque which is more like a plastic mold of another mosque and look just a copy of some Moorish building in the other parts of the world. <br /><br />Like I had related in this posting the Masjid Jamed mosque is a works of art and a masterpiece of its own kind. A great architectural works indeed. <br /><br />Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-88885610943178274992012-05-19T11:03:58.176+08:002012-05-19T11:03:58.176+08:00Pak Idrus, this mosque was restored at a cost of R...Pak Idrus, this mosque was restored at a cost of RM4.8m back in 1984. Razaly Associates were the Architect and I happen to be the qs. What was significant was that one of the tower nearest to the river was tilting and we had to underpin it using micropiles, done by Bachy Soletanch from France. The dome was also renewed thenbasarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13946188135633031367noreply@blogger.com
