The Pink Mosque

The Masjid Dimaukom commonly known as The Pink Mosque, is situated by the highway of Datu Saudi Ampatuan. The mosque is painted with a stunning pink to symbolize peace and love. Also, this color symbolizes unity and brotherhood. To fulfill its meaning, the structure was built by the combined hands of Muslims and Christians. Very unusual because mosques are usually built solely by Muslim brothers.

Maguindanao del Sur Itinerary, Backpacking in Mindanao

When I was creating my itinerary for 9 Days Solo-Backpacking in Mindanao, The Pink Mosque in Maguindanao del Sur was on top of the list. I thought traveling to this province was difficult because of the transportation. Still, I didn't expect that Mindanao would have a lot of integrated terminals connecting the provinces, making it easier for locals and tourists to travel to different spots in different regions; like my solo backpacking, it was smooth and hard to forget.
