Mosque RAYA BAITURRAHMAN
The mosque built by Sultan Iskandar Muda in 1612 has become an icon of Aceh. The main building of the mosque is white with a large black dome surrounded by seven towers. The impression is more pronounced with the presence of a large pool and a water fountain at the front of the mosque reminiscent of the Taj Mahal in India.
This mosque became a religious tourism place in Aceh which is visited for its beauty. The Huffington Post site includes the Baiturrahman Great Mosque in the list of 100 most beautiful mosques in the world, even Yahoo! called this mosque as one of the 10 most beautiful mosques in the world. This is of course increasingly making people proud of Aceh and Indonesia.
If you want to buy a souvenir, you can come to Pasar Aceh located behind the mosque. Once satisfied around, you can travel culinary because there are many food vendors in this market.
