Om
Raske fakta: Mer enn 80 000 mennesker kan be her samtidig i den vidstrakte gårdsplassen og søylehallene. Byggingen startet på slutten av 1800-tallet under en kvinnelig hersker, Nawab Shah Jahan Begum, og fortsatte i etapper over flere tiår.
Høydepunkter: Gå gjennom hovedinngangen, og du møtes av en rosa fasade som skifter tone med sollyset og nesten gløder korallfarget ved solnedgang. De to høye minarettene, hver 66 meter høye, rammer inn et stort basseng der hele moskeen speiler seg som i et speil på stille dager.
Insidertips
- Bring a wide-angle lens or phone with a panorama mode to capture the scale of the courtyard and the full reflection in the pool.
- Visit on a Friday around noon to hear the call to prayer echo through the halls, but arrive early as it gets crowded.
- Cover your head and remove shoes before entering the prayer hall, scarves are available at the entrance if you forget.
- The upstairs galleries offer a quieter viewpoint overlooking the main courtyard and are often overlooked by visitors.
