Beautiful old mosque.
Good afternoon to all steemians & eSteemians.
Hopefully you will always be cheerful.
Today I share a post about a beautiful old mosque.
In my place there are many mosque buildings, but there is one mosque that looks beautiful.
Although this mosque building has been standing for over a hundred years, it looks sturdy.
The mosque which was built in 1899 by the kingdom of Langkat, using experts, which was handled by a German architect and the workers came from ethnic Chinese and surrounding communities.
The building has a mixture of Middle Eastern and Indian with many domes and can accommodate 2000 worshipers, and
equipped with pillars and arches typical of the Middle East decorated with calligraphy, geometric shapes and floral carvings, until completed in 1902.
The beauty of the Azizi Mosque was then used as a reference for the construction of the Zahir Mosque in Kedah, Malaysia.
so that the zahir mosque bears a resemblance to the azizi mosque.
Here is a glimpse of info about historical buildings in my village.
Hopefully it can become attentions.
thanks.
