Things to do in  Kuala Terengganu

Opened in 2008, the Islamic Civilization Park (Taman Tamadun Islam) treats visitors to the perfect mix of education and entertainment. Five interactive monuments and 21 replicas of the world’s most iconic Islamic structures pay homage to the influence of this culture and its people all across the globe. From the Al-Hambra Citadel in Spain to the Taj Mahal in India, visitors can take an international tour without leaving Terengganu. The 23-hectares park also includes a beautiful Crystal Mosque, constructed with crystal shine glass and reflective steel panels. Though many of the international replicas are still under construction, visitors say this impressive mosque still makes the park worth a trip.

So-called because of the glimmering crystal, steel, and glass of its exterior, Crystal Mosque (Masjid Kristal) is the architectural symbol of Terengganu and part of the Islamic Civilization Park (Taman Tamadun Islam). The mosque appears to float, so appears particularly striking when the water is still enough to reflect it.
