Kampung Laut Mosque
Masjid Kampung Laut
Said to be one of Malaysia's oldest mosques, built entirely of wood without a single nail, and returned to its original site in 2022.
Kampung Laut Mosque is traditionally said to have been built in the 18th century or even earlier. It was constructed from hard chengal wood joined by mortise and tenon, without a single iron nail. Its multi-tiered roof follows the traditional Malay style and shows strong Javanese influence. Because of repeated floods, it was moved to Nilam Puri in the 1970s. From 2020 it was dismantled and moved back to its original site in Kampung Laut, across the Kelantan River. As the centrepiece of the 'heritage village' project, it reopened in 2022. Outside prayer times, visitors may view it from outside and ask about visiting.
