  A different experience for non-Muslims like me. Nice from afar. Inside is mostly same as churches with some ceilings.

  The mosque's most recognizable feature, the main dome, is covered in pure gold. The mosque stands 52 m high and can be seen from virtually anywhere in Bandar Seri Begawan. The main minaret is its tallest feature. In a unique way it mixes Renaissance and Italian architectural styles. The minaret has an elevator to the top, where a visitor can enjoy a panoramic view of the city.The interior of the mosque is for prayer only, with features such as stained glass windows, arches, semi-domes and marble columns. Nearly all the material used for the building were imported from abroad: the marble from Italy, the granite from Shanghai, the crystal chandeliers from England, and the carpets from Saudi Arabia.

  A must see in Bandar. Gorgeous inside and out as well as the surroundings. Go at sunset if you can. Love this place

  It's a LOT of $$ spent here...which they should have invested into the Entrepreneurs living and working nearby...and for all that money spent, upon close inspection, not really that impressive. I expected a whole lot more. I did receive a strong "pitch" for Islam by a nice kid inside. Loots prettier from outside.

  Smaller than Masjid Jame'. Parking to pray is like non-existence (unless u use the side of the road or adjacent building's.). Cozy on the inside. Surrounded by parks with flowers.
