[iVisit] Masjid Agung Baiturrahim
Built in 1728, Masjid (Eng. Mosque) Baiturrahiim is the oldest religious building in Gorontalo. Because of that, it’s classified as cultural preservation that needs to be protected. However, the building I visit is not the original creation. Cracked due to earthquake in 1938, the masjid was rebuilt in 1946. It also received enlargement in 1964.
Since it’s located in the center of Gorontalo city, it’s easy to reach by bentor ( becak motor, a local public transportation run by motorcycle and can accomodate 2-3 passengers).
