Masjid Nurul Jamil is a prominent community mosque located in the Dago highlands area of Bandung, West Java. Situated at a high elevation, the mosque serves as a central place of worship for the local Coblong district population. The architectural layout integrates traditional Indonesian mosque features with a design optimized for the sloped terrain of the Dago hillside. It functions as a hub for community religious activities, including regular prayer congregations and local social initiatives. The building remains in active use as of July 2026, serving both residents and visitors passing through the Dago corridor.
