Jamia Masjid
The most impressive mosque in Bangalore is Jamia Masjid, situated near City Market. It dazzles in the sun with its exterior of pristine white marble from Rajasthan. Rayyaz Asifuddin from Hyderabad designed it and the foundation stone was laid by Sir Mirza Ismail (Dewan of Mysore) in 1940. Its balconies are exquisitely fashioned with jali work. |
