Taman Tamaddun Islam and crystal mosque

Taman Tamaddun Islam and crystal mosque are the two must see sites when visiting terengganu. TTI has miniatures of mosques from around the world while the latter is an architectural site built over water.

Post-trip comments

On the way to Taman Tamaddun Islam, we passed by the "Batu Bersurat" replica in town. Dated from the 13th century, it is proof that Islam has spread to Terengganu at that century. It is currently housed in Terengganu national museum.




Taman Tamaddun Islam had replicas of various mosques from all over the world. When we bought the tix (which was a pricey RM20/adult for foreigners), they passed us a "passport" which is a brochure of sorts, describing the various mosques. You can walk all over the park, take a tram or rent bicycles to travel around the park. We took the tram, which was an additional RM3.50 per person. Some of the replicas were put a top a small building, and inside the building would be a showcase of the culture of the country where the mosque is located.

Apparently, this place is also a hot site for couples to take photos for their wedding photoshoot. I saw two couples.
