Putra Mosque

The Putra Mosque, also known as the Pink Mosque, is one of the must-see locations on Kuala Lumpur shore excursions and is visible from almost anywhere in Putrajaya. The distinctive pink color that the rose-tinted granites used to cover the mosque gave it its moniker, the Pink Mosque. The first mosque in the world to be painted pink is Malaysia's second-oldest mosque.

The rose-pink beauty of the Putra Mosque does not alone draw hundreds of visitors each year. The mosque, with a 160-meter minaret that can accommodate roughly 18,000 people, is a remarkable synthesis of mosques from all over the world, each with stunning design. Each essential quality is combined into one. The architecture of the mosque was created using masterpieces from throughout the world, with influences from Egypt, Germany, and Baghdad for the stained glass and Morocco and Baghdad for the sculptures. The mosque also exudes the Safavid era's architectural influence from Iran.

Putra Mosque, which was constructed more than 20 years ago, is located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur at the shore of the stunning Putrajaya Lake. The mosque, which bears the name of Malaysia's first prime minister, is not only a popular tourist destination but also a significant place of prayer for the local Muslim population of Putrajaya. Non-Muslims are welcome to visit the location outside of prayer times, despite the fact that its principal function is as a place of worship.
