Qutub Shahi Masjid
কুতুব শাহী মসজিদ
A stone-and-brick mosque built in 1582 in honour of the Sufi saint Nur Qutb Alam, also known as the “Golden Mosque”.
The Qutub Shahi Masjid stands in Pandua. It was built in 1582 by the descendants of the saint Nur Qutb Alam, and it is also known as the “Golden Mosque of Pandua” because it was once gilded. The prayer hall has five bays and two rows of ten domes (now collapsed); the outer walls are brick with a stone base, and a small minaret ruin stands on the north side. The nearby Bari Dargah saint's cemetery is still visited by devotees. It is only a few dozen metres from the Eklakhi Mausoleum, and admission is free.
