Jami Masjid, Bharuch

The Jami Masjid features three large domes, ten smaller domes, and forty-eight pillars arranged in a symmetrical pattern across its structure.

Constructed in the fourteenth century during the Gujarat Sultanate period, the mosque incorporated materials from an earlier Jain temple in its foundation.

The mosque displays a fusion of Islamic and Hindu architectural elements through its pointed arches, geometric patterns, and temple-inspired decorative niches.

Located at the summit of Bharuch Fort, the mosque maintains regular prayer times and requires visitors to remove shoes before entering the premises.

The prayer chamber contains three distinct compartments with an open pillared veranda, departing from traditional mosque designs that typically feature elaborate arch facades.
