The National Mosque (Masjid Negara) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, is an iconic symbol of Malaysia's cultural and religious heritage. Officially opened on 27 August 1965, the mosque was designed by a team of three architects: Howard Ashley, Hisham Albakri, and Baharuddin Kassim. The mosque's design features a unique blend of traditional Islamic art and modern architectural styles. Its most striking feature is the 73-meter high minaret, which resembles a closed umbrella, and the main roof which looks like an open umbrella.

It stands as a testament to the Islamic faith and the multicultural identity of Malaysia. The mosque also plays an essential role in the community, hosting religious events, educational programs, and social activities. It is not only a place of worship but also a significant landmark that represents the unity and diversity of the Malaysian people. The National Mosque is visited by millions of tourists and worshippers annually, making it a focal point for both spiritual and cultural enrichment.
