Discover the tranquility of Ash-Shaliheen Mosque, a blend of Moorish artistry and Brunei’s serene spirituality, with its garden oasis and intricate architecture.
Ash-Shaliheen Mosque, nestled on the grounds of Brunei’s Prime Minister’s Office, invites visitors into a serene oasis that captures the elegance of Moorish-inspired design. Opened in 2012 and designed by renowned Egyptian architect Abdel-Wahed El-Wakil, the mosque combines traditional Islamic aesthetics with modern elements. Its open courtyard, featuring a marble fountain and lush garden with blue mosaic tiles and sand-toned walls, evokes a peaceful retreat amidst bustling Bandar Seri Begawan. With exquisite geometric screens and archways, this mosque is an architectural marvel that reflects both Brunei’s cultural heritage and timeless Islamic artistry.
For those without access to a private car, we recommend using Dart (think of it as Brunei’s Uber or Grab) which is the most convenient option for traveling in Brunei. While it provides hassle-free booking and convenience, keep in mind that pricing may vary.
