Gathering k sath good hai alone not safe have funn with family

Renovation work done here is pathetic. Really mishandled a marvelous mosque.

An active mosque. Nicely kept. A quick trip after Dai Anga tomb would be nice. Outside probably keep some upkeep. Area is bit ...

Classical and worth to do a visit.Will hardly take you 10 - 20 minutes. Its located adjacent to Lahore Junction Platoform. You can visit it any time.

Beautiful and mesmerizing masterpiece of Mughal architecture

One of the ignore Mosque of Mughals Era

Best Mosque with same architect patterns like in Wazir Khan Mosque

One of many best kept secret of history of Lahore.

Muslims can Go For prayers

Dai Anga served as Shah Jahans wet nurse and remained an influential force in the dynasty until her death in 1672. She is responsible for several monuments in Lahore that still survive, including her tomb near the Gulabi Bagh garden gate. Her mosque, seen here, was constructed in 1635. Although a relatively small structure, it is notable for its refined use of decoration and its stately three-bay facade. It remains in an excellent state of preservation since Dai Anga took care to donate a substantial waqf (endowment) to ensure its maintenance after her death. However, in spite of this, it was briefly converted into the residence of Henry Cope, a newspaper editor, during the rule of the British. It was restored to its original function in 1903 and has served as an active mosque ever since.

One of the Historical Mosque of Lahore facing ignorance of Authorities

Great peaceful

When know about history...I like to give 5 stars

This mosque, on the eastern side of University of Engineering and Technology, was built by Nawab Zakariya Khan, governor of Lahore, in the name of his mother. It is locally known as Begam Shahi Mosque (also the appellation for Maryam Zamani Mosque outside the fort). In government records it is known as “the mosque with glazed tile work at Begampura”.The harmonious mosque of Begampura with a bangladar roof and green glazed tiles painted with elegant floral designs is a unique monument of the late Mughal period at Lahore.  The mosque has a double aiwan, which is its most unique feature among other mosques of Lahore. The original surviving part of the mosque is its prayer chamber having five arched openings in the front. It is an oblong structure measuring 70 feet 8 inches by 41 feet 6 inches and having two long bays, divided by means of wide arches into four inter-communicating compartments, two side rooms and a central chamber. The ceiling of these compartments is created by means of vaultings, the façade of the central compartment has been given the shape of a concave curvilinear with a rib in the centre. The three arched openings on the north and south sides, now blocked, originally opened in the courtyard. Inside the chamber, the Qibla wall has five niches. Instead of the usual central niche being larger, the two adjoining niches on either side are bigger in size instead, which is the most unusual feature of this mosque. On the east of the aiwan, lies a large courtyard of considerable dimensions.Of the surface ornamentations, the revetment consisting of square glazed tiles of yellow colour is prominent. The façade of the prayer chamber has inscriptions in glazed tiles having the Kalima and a Quranic verse.

The mosque was designed on a scaled down version of larger Mughal mosques, such as the nearby Badshahi Mosque. The mosque is fronted by an 84-foot wide courtyard, while the building itself is divided into three section. The central section is the largest and is topped by a 19-foot dome. This is flanked by two smaller sections with 16-foot domes. The central portion of the mosque is elaborately decorated with predominantly blue, orange, and yellow qashani tile work. The interior also displayed fine frescoes previously, unfortunately these have largely been replaced by modern tiles. [3]The exterior of the mosque has been embellished with fine tile work, echoing similarities to the tiles of the Wazir Khan Mosque. The exterior features rich decorative works in tile as well.
