摘要:AbstractMosque is an important place for the Muslim to perform religious activities and as a place for social gathering. Several studies by M. Yilmaz, 2012 and A.Kahera et al., 2009 provided with the design criteria for the optimal siting of mosque. In Malaysia, the criteria to provide mosque in any locality is based on the Guideline for Planning Mosque and Surau. Several studies have shown that a higher density and mixed-use neighbourhood yield less vehicle trips compared to lower density development. This has resulted in ideas to apply new approach in landuse planning to reduce motor vehicle trips. This paper intends to investigate the travel behavior of respondents to reach the mosque from their house to demonstrate the travel behavior of people in different type of neighbourhood.
