Pink is not exclusive to Barbie, but also the holy Rose Mosque

At the end of September, we braved the stormy clouds and rain to reach Putrajaya, the new administrative center of Malaysia, and were amazed by a large pink building across the Putra Lake, which is the largest mosque in Malaysia and one of the most modern mosques in the world. This mosque has nine domes, the structure is similar to other mosques, but because the main building is built on the lake surface, and the building uses a large amount of rose marble and pink wall decoration carpet, the dreamy style is extremely attractive to tourists' curiosity, even if not a believer will not help but visit and experience, the camera facing any direction is a soft beauty. The prayer hall is very beautiful, the outer roof is composed of 49 large and small arches. The central arch has a diameter of 45 meters, with 18 radial stars, representing the 13 states of Malaysia and the five precepts of Islam. The interior decoration is extremely luxurious, and pink gives it a warm and romantic feeling. The hall's environmental commemoration is also very advanced, the 12 pillars inside are hollow design, when the temperature is high, it can be mechanically drawn from the bottom of the lake into the hall, so the hall always has a cool feeling. The minaret is 73 meters high in total, with an elevator to the top. The pink body makes the minaret a visual focus for several kilometers around. 📍Specific address: Next to the Prince's Square in the capital of Malaysia 🕙Opening hours: 6 am to 10 pm every day 💰Average consumption: Free entry for visit 🚉Transportation strategy: The Prince's Square in front of the Pink Church is the center of the city, many buses arrive, and taxis are also convenient. 📝Note tips: All enter barefoot, women must wear a large robe, this mosque can be borrowed for free.
