FINAL THOUGHTS

Masjid Selat Melaka

Melaka Straits Mosque is indeed an amazing place and worth-to-visit place in Malacca. The sound of the waves and the ocean breeze makes it a peaceful and relaxing experience when visiting the mosque. We recommended getting the best experience by visiting the mosque before sunset to witness the picturesque view of the mosque. Getting inside the mosque, tourists are required to wear a proper decent dress code. For men, wearing shorts is not allowed while women must cover the whole body and head when entering the mosque. So come and visit to have a soothing and surreal experience.
