Tour the Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra and see an exquisite blend of Indo-Islamic architecture. This celebrated mosque located in Ajmer, Rajasthan, India gets its name from the fact that the entire structure was constructed in a period of 2 days under the supervision of Mohammad Ghori.
Built in 1198 A.D., Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra was skillfully designed over an already existing edifice that housed an ancient center of Sanskrit learning. Several pillars and structures located within the Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra were picked up from divested Hindu and Jain temples.
Read Koranic versus inscribed on the walls of the 7-arched wall located within the Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra. The main façade of the mosque is ornamented with painted yellow arches and the décor on the walls is quite impressive.
