The Masjid Selat, or Malacca Straits Mosque, is a stunning mosque built on stilts above the water, giving the illusion that it's floating. It is particularly beautiful during high tide and sunset. Accessibility is generally good with ramps available, though navigating the surrounding area might present challenges for those with mobility issues. A visit can be enjoyed solo, allowing for personal reflection, or as part of a guided tour to learn more about its architecture and significance. There are no known seasonal restrictions, though it's advisable to check for special events or closures during major holidays. The cost to enter is minimal, typically a small donation, and a visit usually lasts between 1 to 2 hours. Remember to dress respectfully, covering shoulders and knees, before entering the mosque.
