Ubudiah Mosque

Located at Bukit Chandan, Kuala Kangsar, the Ubudiah Mosque is reputed to be one of the most beautiful mosques in the country and a symbol of pride and faith for all Muslims in Perak. The mosque's magnificent golden dome and minarets are testaments to the beauty of Islamic architecture.
The construction of the mosque began in the reign of Sultan Idris Murshidul Adzam Shah I, the 28th Sultan of Perak, but was interrupted a number of times. Once, when two elephants belonging to Sultan Idris and Raja Chulan ran over the imported Italian marble floor, and again during the first World War. The mosque was officially opened by Sultan Jalil Karaamatullah Shah in 1917.
