Traveldiva – For Muslims, The month of Ramadan adds a religious nuance to everyday life, some of which are in the form of tourism religion.

For companies, There is another pride in Siring Pagatan Beach. "After it became clearer, the concept was a floating mosque, I made several designs from the floats, until it's not, The following is the height and low of the mosque, lengkap dengan biaya operasional pelaksanaan segala macam. After that, terpilih dua model yang kami ajukan ke Pak Bupati,” demikian Project Engineering Expert, Dwi Malvino Irianto bertutur bagaimana berawal dari gambar Masjid Amirul Mukminin di Makassar yang ditunjukkan atasannya, ia kembangkan menjadi desain tersendiri yang kemudian mendapatkan persetujuan Pemerintah Kabupaten Tanah Bumbu, South Kalimantan.Hal itu berlangsung di bulan Desember 2018. “Prosesnya terbilang cepat, pada hari itu juga, bupati sudah memutuskan memilih konsep dua lantai karena bangunannya terlihat lebih megah dan tinggi. Saya mengerjakan desain dalam waktu seminggu,” ujar Dwi.
Dirinya mengaku banyak mencari referensi seorang diri, hingga akhirnya terinspirasi pada rancang bangun yang banyak terdapat pada masjid di Turki. Of course, not only take the nuances of mosques during the Ottoman Caliphate in Turkey. “I tried to find the characteristics of buildings from South Kalimantan, and saw the sailboat in the district's logo. That's what I use as a reference, by designing a mosque shaped like a sailboat. along with time, There have been several revisions to include other elements that are typical of Tanah Bumbu Regency,” he recalled when referring to Regional Regulation No 26 year 2005 regarding the Tanah Bumbu Regency Symbol/Logo as a basis for developing ideas.
