#AprilGoodDestinations2025 _ 📍Sabah Floating Mosque🕌 🚗Take Grab directly to 🎫 Entering the room + renting clothes RM 10 _ The magnificence of the mosque is beyond words. What moved me even more was the devout Muslims It was Ramadan when I visited. It happened to be the time for noon prayer. Seeing hundreds of people praying at the same time, I was inexplicably moved _ I don't have any religious beliefs. Comparison of Islam's five daily prayers It was a huge culture shock for me. I also experienced how Muslim women dress. It's really hot 🥵 _ Sabah has few attractions So this is one of the highlights of the visit. If you don't buy a ticket, you can also take photos outside But I sincerely recommend that you go inside to visit I have been to many mosques, and this is one of the few that offers a costume experience (After all, most visits are free 😂 #Malaysia #malayali #EastMalaysia #SabahKota Kinabalu #katokinabalu #lovekk #mosque #ramadan #islam #ManyouinMalaysia
