The Architecture Of Tawau

Tawau's a typical Malaysian town, heavy on the use of concrete with a sprinkling of mosques around.

City vista, receding to jungle.


Classic government buildings, sprouting from the overgrowth and a funky, curvy library. Nice carports.

Old Tawau, a 1960s concrete jungle.


Busy commercial area. The old Bandar mosque.

Inside the bigger, more modern, Al-Khauthar mosque.


Patina rising, an old apartment building and a ruined house.

Tawau is on the water, with a view of Indonesia in the distance. Stroll the promenade to see it.
