Ubudiah Mosque in Kuala Kangsar is widely recognised as one of the most beautiful in Malaysia.

The government architect was Arthur Benison Hubback, who was also responsible for the Kuala Lumpur and Ipoh railway stations and many other landmark buildings in Malaysia. The mosque features a bulbous onion dome and four main 126 feet high minarets each topped by an Indian style ‘chatri’. The mosque was extended in 1993 by adding verandahs with red, black and white marble floors to complement the original design.
