^{Keloka Jame Mosque}

Today I want to talk about a mosque that is deeply connected with my childhood memories, Keloka Jame Mosque. This place holds many sweet and unforgettable moments from my early life, and thinking about it still gives me a sense of peace.


^{A close look to the front view of the mosque}

This mosque is located right in the middle of a railway residential area. Its location is quite unique and beautiful, as it is surrounded by residential buildings on all sides. I have rarely seen a mosque placed at the center of a residential area like this, which makes it feel very calm and peaceful.

The mosque has been improved a lot over time. Especially the ablution (wudu) area has been upgraded significantly. Before, it was very simple, but now it has a more modern and clean structure. When I visited after a long time, I was honestly surprised and happy to see this positive change. Improvements like this are really important. However, the inside of the mosque is mostly the same as before. It still carries that familiar and nostalgic feeling.

^{Mosque corridor. I spent a lot of sweet moments in my childhood}

The mosque has three entrances, and there is no entrance on the west side. On that side, there are a few small shops where you can find tea, biscuits, and light snacks. Many people spend a little time there before or after prayers. Inside the mosque, the lighting and fan facilities are quite good. There are enough fans installed so that people can pray comfortably even during hot days.

The environment remains cool and pleasant, which makes worship easier and more peaceful. Another nice feature is the digital prayer schedule display on the wall. It clearly shows the prayer times, which is very helpful for everyone. Overall, these facilities add great comfort and convenience for the worshippers.

Overall, this mosque is not just a place of worship for me; it is a part of my life and memories. Every corner of it reminds me of my childhood. I would love to visit again and relive those beautiful moments
