EMPS # 74 : Houses of Worship



 
With its massive golden dome and huge prayer hall, the Sultan Mosque is one of Singapore's most imposing religious buildings, and the focal point of Muslims in Singapore. The mosque, designed by a British architect, Denis Santry, was built in 1928. It is one of the oldest mosque in Singapore.

Hi Jama :)

The dome is quite impressive. :) I love the colors and the lines. :)
Beautifully framed! The building has such a rich history, I just love older buildings.

beautiful building. I can't believe it was built in 1928. It looks brand new.
