About the Grand Mosque

The Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mosque, also called the Grand Mosque of Cotabato City, is the second-largest mosque in the Philippines and one of Southeast Asia’s most prominent Islamic landmarks. It can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers and is located in Barangay Kalanganan II of Cotabato City.

Maguindanao del Norte Itinerary, Backpacking in Mindanao

Cotabato is the largest city in the Province of Maguindanao del Norte, and this independent City holds the largest and one of the most stunning mosques in the Philippines. These structures were built as places of worship, but their breathtaking beauty and spectacular architectural design captured the eyes of travelers, regardless of religion. With that in mind, I have traveled to the Northern side of Maguindanao to see how vibrant these structures are.
