Beautiful Masjid
Dec 2019
Actually this mosque is not actually floating, but because of its location on the seafront and supported by several pillars that make this mosque look like it is floating. The mosque is very clean and well maintained. In this mosque there is a kind of ATM that if we put our money in, we will get souvenirs from this mosque. Another interesting point is the pile of granite that lies along the beach area of ​​the mosque.

Magnificent sunset view
Mar 2020 • Solo
I enjoyed myself at the seaside, waiting for sunset. I reached about 6pm plus, and the mosque was closed for visitation. However, I sat outside the mosque and waited for the sunset. The evening view of mosque is magnificent. They started to solat around 7pm. If you pray, please join them.

CHECK OPENING TIMES!
Feb 2020 • Solo
Be warned, if it's closed you won't be able to get near the mosque let alone inside it. Not unreasonable and my fault for assuming that I would at least be able to see the outside. Not the case however, as a very friendly and polite man made it clear, apologetically, that I could go no father than the outside gate.

Christmas Visiting
Dec 2019 • Family
We made a visit to this place before returning home. It’s refreshing and claiming having the mosque building above the the straits of Malacca river bank.

As this a place of worship we did not made our way inside the main prayer hall. Do note to wear decently with long pants and shirts with sleeves for ladies otherwise you be rejected entry into the prayer hall.

Beautiful architecture
Dec 2019 • Family
One of the most beautiful mosques in Malaysia and a must visit place in Melaka. Best to visit either during sunrise or sunset.

We visited here at sunset and the white mosque against the grey cloudy sky looked magical!

If you want to go inside the mosque you to wear burqa/thobe provided for free near the toilets, even if you are already wearing full body covering clothes. It is the tradition and must be respected. What I didn’t like was that the head hijabs were all wet with sweat of others and smelly, which was unhygienic.
