UNIQUE ARCHITECTURE OF MOSQUES - TAMAN TAMADUN ISLAM KUALA TRENGGANU

The following photos just a snippet and were taken during my holiday in Trengganu years back.

Taman Tamadun Islam is an educational theme park located in a town of Kuala Trengganu. It's a collection of 21 replicas of historical monuments and mosques by Islam architecture from all over the world.

The monuments here were built so detailed that they resemble almost exactly the original buildings from the original place, only the size is smaller. I was told that most (if not all) replicas here are made to scale 1:8 compared to original building. Yet, the beauty of these historical monuments of centuries of age is enough to make you amazed of realization how people manage to build such architecture during their era.



except for this one, this is real...




































Taman Tamadun Islam is a 'Must See' when visiting Trengganu. So, head on to Trengganu and you will be mesmerized!

Malaysia Truly Asia!
