Friday Prayers

On Friday I join the Muslim comunity in Bintulu for the regular Friday congregational prayers.

On the way to the carpark, I stopped by the minaret which is at a distance from the main mosque building. Architecturally,the minaret is connected to the main mosque by a water body. I thought an interesting concept.

Terendak design on Bintulu roof

A cu view of the Pasar Utama roof. Here the design is typical of the Melanau 'terendak' (hat). For some reasons the original roof was of white metal roofing sheet. Thus it was necessary to repaint it in other colours to avoid looking dirty.
