The two hours spent here was most relaxing, got the steps in too. Lots of photography scope and as an artist, the colours, shapes and patterns are just breathtaking. Clean, calm, civilised, welcoming surroundings. Foreigner ticket of 700 rupees about £7 sterling was definitely worth it. Loved it
A giant mosque sits on a hill in Old Delhi, with views of the city unlike anywhere else. Marble and maximal use of red sandstone, vibrant and earthy, used for the vast courtyard, outer walls, halls, and minarets of which you can climb to the 40m balcony.
A moment of calm when you exit the bustle of the Old Delhi streets allows you to appreciate the architecture.
The Jama Masjid is a serene place of worship, radiating spirituality and tranquility. Its stunning architecture and peaceful ambiance offer a soulful experience for prayer and reflection. A must-visit for its beauty and spiritual serenity.
Once we enter we first have to take off our shoes, not that well maintained so the floors are pretty nasty although no one entering with shoes. However the surrounding walls were something else with detailing architecture. Including wind catcher on top to cool the surrounding areas inside. It was a bomber that I didn’t go to the top of the tower for from what I’ve heard it was amazing.
It is a good place for prayer 🕌 Entry is free. Take care of your shoes 👟 Do not enter wearing shoes. If you stand on the steps, you can see all the hustle and bustle of the market. From here you can also see Red. The mosque is very beautiful. You will love the architecture .
