Masjid India

Just minutes away from Masjid Jamek are Masjid India. Built in the southern Indian style, this mosque is a three-storey structure with onion-domed chartist (open-sided umbrella-shaped cupolas) as well as arched windows with Islamic motifs. This mosque was first built in 1863 as a wooden hut and underwent several renovations. The present structure was opened by the Sultan of Selangor in 1966 and can accommodate 3,500 worshippers. The first floor is for men while the second floor is reserved for women.
