Unique and beautiful mosques in Indonesia
The Raudhaturrahman Padang Tiji Mosque is located in Padang Tiji District, Pidie Aceh Regency.
The uniqueness of this mosque is the main attraction when viewed from its architecture. How not, this mosque is like the shape of an alien spaceship, namely UFO.
Not the usual shape like most mosques consisting of domes, towers and other aesthetics with Middle Eastern architectural styles, for example. When it was built in 1980, this mosque became a byword as well. Phenomenal and unique. At that time there was no mosque in Aceh that looked like the Raudhaturrahman Mosque.
Then, is this mosque without pillars? Of course there are many pillars, but they are wrapped in the walls. Look at the outside, where the bottom of the shell (dome) is supported by concrete (ornament) bulkheads, from which there are entrances from three directions. Inside the mosque, there are indeed two pillars, but as a support for the second floor. The condition without many pillars makes it more flexible to establish rows of rows. So this mosque does have its own beauty value.
