City Mosque

The Kota Kinabalu City Mosque is the second main mosque in Kota Kinabalu after State Mosque. Sprawling above a man-made lagoon at Likas Bay, the Likas mosque or City mosque was built as such that it created an impression to be floating above water. The architecture is marvelous, closely and immaculately resembles the design of Nabawi Mosque in Medina, Saudi Arabia. The sky-blue dome blends perfectly with its white masonry.

This floating mosque has a prayer hall which houses three madrasahs and accommodates from 9, 000 to 12, 000 people at a time.

The Kota Kinabalu City Mosque is open for public visits daily except Fridays from 8am to 5pm. There are no fees charged on visitors.
