Visited Masjid Agung Palembang (the Great Mosque of Palembang) on 16/Mar/2020, when I could not read/speak Indonesian at all.😅 The mosque is the largest mosque in Palembang, with area 15,400 square meter. Before Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin I Jayo Wikramo rebuilt this mosque in the 18th century, it was founded by Sultan Ki Gede Ing Suro in the 17th century. It is said that the mosque forms the original Malay and Arab villages for a long time in Palembang. I visited the mosque in early morning, the scene of the mosque at dawn was too impressive to be real. I didn’t enter the mosque because I was not sure whether I would be allowed or not, if there’s any opportunity to revisit Palembang, I will go inside to explore more.

very comfortable. you will see traditional ornament inside the mosque. they also provide AC, so it's makes you more comfort when praying the exterior and scenery outside the mosque very beautiful

If you are muslim, try to visit this mosque! It is located in downtown where you can hang around after praying here. The mosque facilities are not maintained well. It is quite difficult to find direction or information board. You need to put your slipper or flip-flop in front of the mosque and pay the locket short after your leaving. Quite clean, but still under renovation.

Beautiful interior and exterior. And so spacious. I especially love the ornamented glass windows and dome ceiling... So pretty! 😍😍😍

The best n oldest mosque in palembang, only 5 minutes walk from Musi River bank. You can see the architecture of the mosque.

Antique, artistic architecture. However ablution room was not clean, need to be refreshed.

This mosque is so hostorical. The main hall (prayer place for men) is still authentic, full with Palembang's ornaments. Very very beautiful mosque. This mosque is not a museum. It is a mosque where the moslem do they prayer. So you need to dress properly.

One of a big great mosque at Palembang. After praying, you can have a walk for enjoying the landscape

the place is beautiful and very Islamic..but the sanctity of the toilet must be improved...

Located in the centre of city. A nice n must visited place while you are in Palembang

A historical place but needs some improvements in the environment cleanliness.

A historycal masque in palembang, near ampera's bridge

The mosque was clean, in a good condition and accompanying with friendly staffs, unfortunately there was no soap either in toilet or wudhu section. Otherwise it would be perfect.

The sound system needs some improvement Can't hardly hear the imam voice while doing jama'ah

A beautiful and historic mosque in southern Sumatra. It is adjacent to Monpera, Ampera Bridge, and business center in Palembang. Many tourists who visit every day to pray or just take photos.

Beautiful mosque.. unique architecture.. love it..

A great mosque with a Javanese's touch for the interiors

One of the cultural heritage that MUST visit and maintain.
