Klang Royal Town Mosque, Riverside mosque in Klang, Malaysia
Klang Royal Town Mosque is a riverside mosque with white and gray facades that appears to float above the Klang River waters. The building contains prayer areas, lecture rooms, catering facilities, and administrative spaces designed to serve the local Muslim community.
Construction began in 2003 to address overcrowding at nearby mosques, and the building was formally inaugurated in 2009. This project responded to the growth of the Muslim population in Klang during the early 2000s.
The mosque serves as a teaching space where religious scholars lead daily sessions and weekly lectures for the local Muslim community. People gather here not only for prayer but also to participate in religious learning and celebrations during important festivals.
The mosque is easily accessible by road and has adequate space for visitors and worshippers. It is best to wear modest clothing and plan your visit around the five daily prayer times, when the facility is most active.
The building was specifically designed to work with the riverside setting and create visual harmony with the natural landscape. Its floating structure above the water is an architectural feature that sets it apart from other religious buildings in the region.
