Photograph of an external view of the Kapitan Keling Mosque in Penang, Malaysia. A group of men stand outside the mosque. There is a covered walkway leading to the ablution area.
 
The mosque was constructed in the 1800s. The mosque's current appearance owes to a renovation in 1930. This is the earliest known photograph of Kapitan Keling Mosque.
 
From an album presented to Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh by the Bishop of Penang in remembrance of his 1869 visit
