We could see the Chinese influence in the architectural structure of the mosque where the dome of the mosque resembles a pagoda.
As we entered the main gate of the mosque, we could see the ablution pool or more fondly known among the Malaysian muslims as ‘kolah’. This is the traditional way to take our ablution before normal water pipes were introduced.
