Bayur Grand Mosque, Religious site in Bayua, Indonesia

The Bayur Grand Mosque stands with four minarets and a three-tiered roof following traditional Minangkabau architecture in West Sumatra.

The mosque, established in 1905, underwent substantial renovations in 2000 when local entrepreneurs from Jakarta led initiatives to improve its structure.

The mosque merges Thai pagoda shapes with Minangkabau gonjong roof designs, displaying carved panels painted in dark colors throughout its interior.

The religious complex includes separate ablution facilities for men and women, with provided religious attire and designated areas for storing shoes.

Behind the main prayer hall, the mosque features a fish pond flanked by ablution areas, while a decorative fountain graces the front entrance.
