The Sabah State Mosque can hold up to five thousand visitors at one time and is one of the most popular places to visit in Kota Kinabalu. The Sabah State Mosque is one of the best examples of contemporary Islamic architecture in Kota Kinabala and is situated south of the city centre, away from the noise and heat.
