Kaohsiung Mosque, Islamic center in Lingya District, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Kaohsiung Mosque is a three-story building with a green dome and minaret that combines traditional Middle Eastern design with modern construction. Inside, the space includes prayer halls, areas for language study and cultural activities, and facilities serving both male and female visitors.
The mosque was founded in 1949 by Muslim immigrants who came to Taiwan and initially worshipped in temporary spaces. The building moved to its current permanent location during the 1990s, becoming a fixed landmark for the community.
This place serves the local Muslim community as a gathering point where daily prayer and religious life unfold naturally throughout the day. Visitors can observe how the space brings people together for worship and cultural activities that matter to the community.
This building is located in Lingya District and is easy to reach by public transport, with a subway station nearby. It opens daily and visitors are welcome to enter the space, though it is good to be aware of prayer times and local visitor customs.
Several restaurants run by community members operate near the building and serve meals prepared according to Islamic dietary rules, offering an authentic dining experience. These establishments have become part of the daily rhythm around the site.
