Jhanjhari Masjid, 15th century mosque in Jaunpur, India.

The Jhanjhari Masjid features stone walls with intricate patterns and a central arch that stands as the main structural element of the building.

Ibrahim Sharqi, ruler of the Jaunpur Sultanate, ordered the construction of this mosque during his reign in the 15th century as part of his architectural projects.

The mosque represents a combination of Islamic and regional architectural styles, displaying the integration of different design elements from that period.

The monument requires visitors to remove their shoes before entering, and photography inside the premises needs prior permission from local authorities.

General Cunningham and Fuhrer named the mosque Jhanjhari based on its detailed stonework patterns, which distinguish it from other structures in Jaunpur.
