Jamae Mosque, A Blend of Cultures in Architectural Marvel

Introduction
This mosque was built in 1826 and is one of the earliest mosques in Chinatown. It is also one of the three earliest mosques built by Indian Muslims in southern India. Its architecture is very unique, with a front that looks like a finely complex palace with small doors and cross-shaped windows. The entrance is in the typical South Indian style, while the two prayer halls and temple exhibit a neoclassical style. Therefore, despite the mosque having a crescent moon symbol, its architectural style is very different from that of Chinese mosques. Address 218 South Bridge Road, Singapore 058767
