Ubudiah Mosque, Kuala Kangsar

Located beside the Royal Mausoleum at Bukit Chandan, Kuala Kangsar, the Ubudiah Mosque is considered one of the country's most beautiful mosques. Built in 1913, it serves as a symbol of pride and faith for all Muslims. It was commissioned by Sultan Idris Shah, who vowed to build a mosque of great beauty as a thanksgiving for his recovery from an illness that had plagued him in his younger days. The Sultan, however, did not live long enough to see his magnificent creation. The mosque's magnificent golden domes and minarets are testaments to the beauty of Islamic architecture. The mosque was officially opened by Sultan Jalil Karamatullah Shah in 1917
