Built by Shah Jahan in 1658, it is one of the largest
mosques in India with a seating capacity of more than
20,000.
The mosque is situated near the Red Fort in old Delhi.
This is the area that still retains the traditional charm
of markets in Mughal times.
The bulbous domes and tapering minarets built with marble
stand strong and beautiful even to this day. This mosque
has three gateways, four angle towers and two 40 m. high
minarets. You can even go to the top of minarets and have
a bird's eye view of Delhi.
