Blue Mosque Shah Alam

Known as the Blue Mosque, the official name of this mosque is Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Azis. Placed at Shah Alam, the capital city of Selangor State, this mosque is around 30 km from KLCC. 

As the name of the Mosque is Blue, so yes, the mosque comes with the blue colour. Almost all ornaments inside and outside the mosque  comes in blue.

-Blue Tiles, taken from the wall-

-Blue Kubah-

- Blue Fan and Light-

So here's the thing, when we get there, the rain is just so heavy. Since the parking lot is in the open space, then we have to bear the wetness. Also, the floor become so slippery even dangerous to step in. The mosque it self is very nice at the inside. But I think it got a poor maintenance. Some of the tiles falls down from the wall when we was there. Maybe it was because the heavy rain. 

Since we came on Sunday, there are also some bazaar at the mosque. I don't know whether it is because of the rain, or the bazaar itself always take place at the edge of the mosque. It also ruin the beauty of the mosque, but I bet it is just because of the rain.

-Bazaar-

The bazaar like the usual bazaar at the mosque, sold things such as clothes, dates, qur'an, Islamic books and some kind of things (maybe) coming from Arab. 

This mosque also surrounded by a nice park, with a big fountain right in front of the mosque. The fountain is really huge, by the time we're there they turn it off. 

We did not have a chance to look around the park, after took some photos and Solat Ashar, we go back. 

Not so many story to tell after visiting this place, but I believe, at the first time this mosque was build it is a beauty, only now time passes by the mosque getting older. But for you to know, the main function of this mosque is still there. I saw the mosque still use as the learning place, some kids are there taking their Islamic courses, the business also still there :)
Glad that I've visited this place. Hoping someday I can meet the real Blue Mosque in Istanbul :))
