Terengganu (formerly spelled Trengganu or Tringganu)
is a sultanate and constitutive
state of federal Malaysia. The state is also known by its
Arabic honorific, Darul Iman ("Abode of Faith"). The
coastal city of Kuala Terengganu which stands at the
mouth of the broad Terengganu River is both the state
and royal capital as well as the largest city in Terengganu.
The Floating Mosque is located in Teluk Ibai, just over 4km
away from Kuala Terengganu town centre, south of Batu Buruk beach. The mosque
appears to be floating on water, hence the nickname.
Noor Arfa is a pioneer of the much acclaimed batik industry
in Malaysia. The Noor Arfa story has a humble beginning in 1980 in a small atelier in
Kuala Terengganu when the husband and wife team of Wan Mohd. Ariffin and Noor
Hijerah started designing and hand-drawing their own batik cloth. The venture,
known as Noor Arfa, is an acronym derived from the combination of the names of
this young and enterprising couplej. It was soon destined to grow by leaps and
bounds to the multi-million dollar corporation it is today.
