Hi Blog,
Looking through QH's itinerary, there are a lot of sites visiting to cover, so our first visit is to the famous Melaka Straits Mosque, Masjid Selat. Since it is a Muslim country, visiting their mosque is a way to pay our respect.

Masjid Selat Melaka. Until now, I still can't read that word than spell it. |
|
The sky looks rather gloomy but lucky, it does not rain. |
|
Another tall tower on our right, which we are not sure what is it for. |
|
Looks like a church architecture from this angle |
|
We ask a tourist to help for our group picture, but... I WANT IT LANDSCAPE! |
|
Holding a tripod to serve as a Selfie-stick seems doable. :D |
|
Masjid Selat located on the man-made Malacca Island and many Muslim friends said it is a very beautiful mosque. |
|
I brought a tripod along and it comes in handy :) |
|
I can achieve a better shot with a tripod! Where is the tripod I ordered from indiogogo?! It has been a year plus! (link) |
|
Perhaps I should go down to the sandy area for picture. |
|
Another side seems rather crowded with tourists |
|
Barely have a chance to take any picture |
|
At least, we manage to cover some tourists behind our back |
|
Overall, it is just a spot for photography unless you are a Muslim, then you can enter the mosque with a special purpose. For non-Muslim visitors need to dress modestly, no shorts. Women must bring their scarf or use a rental shawl to cover their head. But we do not enter. |
|
A light house to warn any nearby ships |
After a short visit, we go for a dinner then visit
Jonker Street!
