Combined with the modern Japanese construction method with designs, material and craftsmen from Turkey, the new mosque was completed in 2000, to replace the old mosque which was constructed in 1938!
Costing more than 1.2 Billion Yen to construct, this mosque is actually situated in the Shibuya District, built "head-to-head" with the rest of the modern structures.
The flags of Turkey & Japan can be seen flying side by side outside the mosque, symbolizing the cooperation between them.

During the trip, there were also some local tourists visiting the mosque.
