The Golden Mosque; A Symbol of Community
The Golden Mosque, constructed in 1976, stands as a testament to the rich cultural diversity of Manila's Quiapo district.
This mosque was intended as a welcoming gesture for Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi, although he never visited. It today serves thousands of Muslims who have settled in Quiapo since the 1950s, primarily from Mindanao. Its architecture features a striking golden dome and vibrant colors, making it a cultural focal point surrounded by lively street vendors.
