1910: Masjid Kg. Pelangi, Kuala Pilah.

Masjid Lama Kg. Pelangai

The Forgotten Spaces.
An old mosque in Kampung Pelangai, Kuala Pilah was built in 1910, with the intervention of 'Demak' architectural style.
The unique element of 5 'Tiang Gantung' symbolises the 5 pillars of Islam.
The stone steps, ablution part still intact with the broken long-standing 'mimbar'.
As various 'secret stories' have been told, the Islamic architectural essence of the structure is still strong today, although the structure is no longer in use.
