Angke Mosque

Angke Mosque, officially known as Masjid Jami Angke or Masjid Al-Anwar, located at Tambora, Jakarta, Indonesia. It is one of the oldest mosques in Jakarta. Well-maintained and retaining its original form, the mosque has been called by the historian Denys Lombard as 'une des plus élégantes de la viei

lle villa' (one of the most elegant of the old town). The history of the mosque reflects the multiethnic and multilayered origin of colonial Jakarta.
