    There are several places in the church in Penang, and the shape is different. The church in Jining Jiabidan should be the largest. You can go in and visit. There are not many people. It should not be when it is worshiping. It is worth seeing.

    Impressive mosqueThis us an impressive old mosque situated in the heart of old Georgetown. It has typical Moorish style architecture with domes and minarets. Seemed to be closed when visited due to prayer time or because it was Ramadan.

    In 1926, architects donated and hired by Muslims and Hindus draped it in a Moorish style. The Colin Muslim Church is named after the leader of the Colin tribe in southern India. The leader was an Indian mercenary who followed Wright in France. The milky white appearance and golden dome of the temple is a major feature.

    Some historical relics such as wells, cannons and the tomb of the first Imam of the mosque, Imam Abu Hanifah, are preserved as historical material.

    Take a lesson from the noble hearts of Muslim merchants such as Cauder Mohudeen who donated property to develop the teachings of Islam in this state.

    The proceeds from the resources obtained, the state's Islamic Religious Council is channeled back to mosques that do not have their own funds.

    The specialty of the Kapitan Keling Mosque is also a proof of how the concept of waqf and charity was the practice of earlier Islamic traders.

    After negotiations, the British agreed to give about 4.2 hectares of land near the port area for the purpose of building a mosque.
