Istana Maziah is the official residence of the Sultan of Terengganu. It is located off Jalan Sultan Zainal Abidin, at the foot of Bukit Puteri on the north side of Kuala Terengganu. Istana Maziah was built in 1897 during the reign of Sultan Zainal Abidin III. It became the official residence of the state ruler after Istana Hijau was destroyed during the Second World War.
Istana Maziah is today the venue for official royal functions such as the comferment of titles and royal birthday celebrations.
