Peaceful Place , Jama Masjid, the principle place of prayers for Muslims was built during Ahmed Shah’s reign in the 15thΒ century. It was supposedly the largest mosque in the Indian subcontinent. The mosque was constructed as part of a larger design of the city. It lies south of the processional axis that runs from the Maidan-i Shah with three arches called Teen Darwaza in the old city. Ahmed Shah, his son, and grandson have mausoleums west of the mosque. A short walk away lies Rani no Hajiro, the tombstones of queens and wives of the dynasty.Nice architecture , best to visit in evening!

Jama ( Jumma ) Masjid is Built by Ahmed Shah in 1423, in 15th century. It was built for mainly Friday prayer . It was once the biggest mosque in Indian Subcontinent. The Prayer hall has 260 columns which support 15 Principal Domes at different elevations.The great shaking minarets lost half their height in the great earthquake of 1819.Review by Inspiring Dreams

Jama masjid is surrounded by crowded noisy market. As soon as you enter the mosque you can feel the fresh air refreshing your mind and purifying your soul. The peaceful environment with pigeons eating grains and sipping water at pool is adorable. The grand monument is an example of great architectures and artist shaping the stones in beautiful curves and tiny well finished traditional designs are awsome

No matter how much crowd and noise is there outside. Once you step inside mosque its pin drop silence. Soulful place. Its huge, clean and perfect place to find yourself in peace. What an architect and his skills. So many pillars but each has different carving. People who work there are so friendly. No doubt why India is called country with great history and also no doubt why Ahmedabad has given Heritage city title. I would love to go there as many times as I can. You should visit it once in your lifetime.

Its very lively place of worship situated between Teen Darwaza and Manek Chowk. This Grand mosque was completed in 1423 AD by the Sultan Ahmad Shah. its structure is just world class, fusion of color marble in mehrab is just excellent Sultan was a good human being too. This grand mosques architecture and decorative works are remarkable, heritage lovers cant restrict their feeling to express and they just remain spellbound.

Jama or Jami Masjid, see what the display board has.Irrelevant to that, an historical heritage monument.To understand it better carefully read the five display in stones outside the main entrance from gandhi road.Interior is a vast open calm space for offering prayers and gathering.No inside photos as a sacred place.Read instructions and history carefully to enjoy visit to this ancient place.Enjoy.

The Jami Masjid is a huge, open ancient mosque that gives you the sense of tranquility and peace in what is busy Old Ahmedabad city.The architecture is a blend of influences from Persia to Udaipur and it all comes together so well.Early mornings, in between prayer times, this is a good place to wander around, explore the architecture and the calligraphy. Find a little peace. Then head back out for breakfast.

A time travel through the history! Visiting this mosque always comes up with least tourists, handful of Namaazis and kids playing around the, birds chirping here and there. The architecture of the mosque is in Indo-Islamic style.This place gives a contrast feel to the old citys chaos! Must visit during the sunrise and sunset hours. Extremely impressive work of pillars, Jaalis and domes!

Built in 1424 in Indo-Saracenic style, the sprawling Jumma Masjid was the largest mosque in Indian subcontinent during its period.It is a wonderful art of architecture, a place to simply sit peacefully away from the hustle-bustle of the bazaar outside. Its in the old city so if you are planning to visit, park your vehicle a kilometre away and walk through the bazaar - you will enjoy that.
