The Federal Territory Mosque is one of the largest mosques in the country and designed to be a “mosque in a garden”, covering 47,000 square metres. Featuring a blend of the 16th century Ottoman Empire’s architectural design with traditional Malay craftsmanship, it is also influenced by the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey. Its 22 domes are glazed with decorative blue tiles and the mosque is exquisitely decorated with detailed carvings of traditional meandering cloud motives.
