Baiturrahman Grand Mosque (Indonesian: Mesjid Raya Baiturrahman) is a large mosque located in the centre of the city of Banda Aceh,Aceh province, Indonesia. It is of great symbolic significance to the Acehnese people as a symbol of Acehnese religion and culture, especially since it survived the devastating 2004 tsunami intact.
The mosque was designed by an Italian architect and built by the Dutch colonial administration as a token of reconciliation following their destruction of an older mosque during the Aceh wars. Construction of the mosque commenced in 1879 and was completed in 1881. The mosque survived the massive 2004 tsunami which destroyed much of the rest of the city of Banda Aceh.
The design of the mosque combines colonial and Moghul Indian influences. Its design is not dissimilar to the Mesjid Raya Tuban in East Java. The mosque combines few traditionally Acehenese features though it has come to represent the city of Banda Aceh and the cultural uniqueness of the Acehenese.

Subhanallah maha besar allah yang telah menciptakan keindahn di dunia ini,,,,dengan sempurna dia menatanya,,,dengan cantik dia mengukirnya,,,
ReplyDeletebegitu murkanya orang-orang yang merusaknya apakah dia tidak menyadari bahwa dia telah d beri kesempatan untuk menikmatinya,,,
Sama seperti allah menciptakan manusia untuk berpasangan harus saling menutupi kekuranganya masing2,,,saling menyayangi,,,mengasihi,,,mengerti,,,dll
Bukan seperti orang yang tidak mensyukuri nikmat itu yang hanya mengunakan kasih sayang untuk menutupi malu jika tidak ada pasangan,,,
indahnya................
