Khoja Mosque, Religious monument at River Road and Moi Avenue junction, Nairobi, Kenya.
The three-story Khoja Mosque features stone block construction, large entrance doors, and a prominent clock mounted on its central dome.
The foundation of Khoja Mosque was laid by Governor Sir Charles Bowring in 1920, with official opening ceremonies conducted by Major General Sir Edward Northey in 1922.
The mosque includes separate prayer halls for men and women, plus a courtyard with wooden benches where congregants gather after religious services.
The ground floor contains offices of Aga Khan community institutions, while the second floor features a prayer hall with soundproof windows for meditation.
The wood components used in the mosque construction were imported from Gujarat, India, reflecting the origins of many Ismaili community members.
