We had a wonderful day with our amazing tour guide, Su Li Lee. Her knowledge of the local lives, culture and history facinated not only me, a visitor, but also my local friend. What I loved the most was the food walk from breakfast to suppers, from local market and street food to restaurants, from Chinese cuisine to Malay and Indian. We had a blast.

A visitor's centre is open in a separate building in the vast green garden. To enter the main building shoes must be left on the racks outside, locals even wash their feet in the covered water baisin on the courtyard. Toilets in mosques are usually free to use for anybody.

The Mosque itself is - sorry if this may sound impropriete - someway cool. It is build in a surprising clear style, mainly in white. So it is worth to skip your short trousers into a jeans or so. Ladies will do normally fine with a shwal around neck and head, but otherwise they provide something like a cape. If you got the chance to participate on a short guided tour, do it ! We were guided by a wonderful lady from india (with a great vioce when reciting examples from the quran). Not to far away, you will find Hock Teik Cheng Sin Temple - a nice contrast and also realy worth a visit

Kapitan Keling Masjid is one of the biggest mosques in George Town city, Penang. Built in 19th century by Indian Muslim traders in George Town. Great architectural design.
