Atala Masjid, Jaunpur, Monument of National Importance in Jaunpur, India.

The Atala Masjid features three massive domes, a rectangular prayer hall divided into three aisles, and an entrance gateway with 23-meter-tall pylons.

Construction of the mosque began during Sultan Firuz Shah III's reign in 1376, experienced several interruptions, and reached completion in 1408 under Ibrahim Shah Sharqi.

Located 300 meters from Shahi Qila fort and 1 kilometer from Jama Mosque, the structure covers a square area of 78.5 meters on each side.

The central dome rises 17 meters above ground level, while the main entrance portal reaches a height of 23 meters, creating a distinctive silhouette.
