Ahmadiyya Centre Melbourne
Built: 2010
Capacity: 1000
Location: Melbourne, Australia
Leisureland Fair was an amusement park which operated on this site from 1984 to 1992. It is now a housing estate with the only reference to it being a street named after it. The amusement park was situated on a large plot of land with a steam train which would take passengers from the carpark to the park itself. The park consisted of a large number of attractions including a custom built steel roller coaster, log flume, waterslides, mini golf, a function centre and various other rides. The only remaining part of Leisureland Fair is the former Function Centre, otherwise known as "The Castle". This was renovated into a Community Centre and Place of Worship by the Ahmadiyya Movement. The Ahmadiyya Centre Melbourne was officially opened by Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih the 5th on his blessed Asia Pacific tour 2013. He led the Friday prayers and Friday sermon on the opening of this Centre on 11 October 2013.
May Allah make this Ahmadiyya Center Melbourne, a true Castle of Islam while spreading the true teachings of peace, harmony and tolerance.
