Neevin Mosque, 15th-century mosque in Walled City, Lahore, Pakistan
The Neevin Mosque features three low domes and requires visitors to descend 26 steps to reach its prayer hall, situated 25 feet below street level.
Built in 1460 during the Lodi dynasty under Bahlul Lodi's rule, the mosque was constructed by Zulfiqar Khan who served under Lahore's governor Haybat Khan.
The prayer hall, divided into three sections with short domes characteristic of Lodi architecture, accommodates 100 worshippers for daily religious services.
Visitors access the mosque through Lohari Gate in the Walled City, following Naya Bazaar at Chowk Matti to find the narrow entrance leading to the stairs.
The mosque's drainage system, unchanged since the Lodi period, maintains the subterranean structure through functional wells that have operated for over 500 years.
