Taman Tamadun Islam is a park that carries the concept of Edutainment Park,which means that apart from enjoying the glorious views of the monuments, the visitors will also be able to learn about the history of the monuments. In parallel with this concept, the visitors will be able to observe the structures built centuries ago without using any modern technologies. The monuments are the symbol of the human civilization and they are still around until today, which proves the grandeur of architectural design in the past.
The monument park presents 22 monuments from 21 countries from all over the world across the Asian, European and African continents. There are two monuments which come from the same state; the Masjidil-Haram and Nabawi Mosque. All monuments, scaled from between 1:1.7 to 1:22 compared to the original size, are the important landmarks which marked the arrival, development and glory of Islam in the countries. The materials used to build all the monuments are locally produced.
All the names and information of the monuments are explained in three languages – Malay, English and Arabic. This is to provide information to visitors which come from different countries from all over the world. Other than providing a splendor view of the great architectural elements in the monuments, the park also provides interactive activities in certain monuments.
