Jami' Mosque Kadriyah Palace

Well preseved heritage of mosque in the bank of Kapuas river

Mm

Wooden mosque from 1771 and until today still standing strong and in use. Majestic building. Visited early morning and building closed. This is a historic building for Pontianak and worthwhile a visit definitely in combination with Istana Qadriyah. Next to the mosque is a wet market which was very busy in the morning. One enters the compound over a small bridge.

You can pray here properly and after that you can enjoy Kapuas river
