An ocean of calm in this noisy and boisterous neighbourhood.It’s a medieval building and entry is free though one needs to take off ones as is the case with most religious buildings in India.

Fatehpuri Masjid was built in 1650 by Fatehpuri Begum, one of emperor Shah Jahans wives who was from Fatehpur Sikri,[1]and the mosque at Taj Mahal is also named after her.[2]The British had auctioned the mosque after the 1857 war to Rai Lala Chunnamal for Rs. 19,000[3](whose descendants still live in the Chunnamal haveli in Chandni Chowk[4]), who preserved the mosque. Later in 1877 it was acquired by the government in exchange for four villages and was restored to the Muslims at the Delhi Durbar when the British allowed the Muslims back in Old Delhi. A similar mosque, called Akbarabadi Masjid built by the Akbarabadi Begum was destroyed by the British.[5]The Khari Baoli, which is today Asias largest spice market, gradually developed after the construction of the mosque.Muslim festivals Id-ul-Fitr and Id-ul-Zuha are celebrated with great enthusiasm at the mosque.Mufti Mukarram Ahmad is the chief mufti and imam of the mosque and has been Imam there for almost 42 years and before him his father Maulana Mufti Mohammad Ahmad (d. 21 October 1971/1391 AH) was imam and mufti of the mosque

Tthis mosque is located near sadar bazaar railway station , or you have to walk around 1-1.5 km from old delhi railway station or from Red fort .This mosque is hard to notice in between the market there are lot of shops around the mosque and you can easily miss it , but when you enter from one of the three main gates you will be surprised to see that a lot of space is available for the mosque and very peaceful and relaxing after spending hours in market

Fatehpuri Masjid is one of the oldest mosque ( Masjid ) of old Delhi in Chandni Chowk near old Delhi station. It is a 17th century constructed mosque as old as Jama Masjid the largest Masjid of Delhi. It is an Heritage place of Delhi and maybe one of the nice tourist place of Delhi if area is developed as tourist place by state government. The mosque is neat and clean from inside but gates and out side are is very congested. It is a nice monument for tourist who comes in Chandni Chowk and Delhi to see its old Heritage historical monuments.

The construction of this beautiful mosque in Delhi boasts Mughal architecture with an element of Persian and Indian design. The entire mosque is built with red sandstone which adds a unique charm in the grandeur of this beautiful tourist place in Delhi. Besides, the mosque has three gates; the first one is right in the front of Red Fort, whereas, the other two are located on the north and south side. The north end is Khari Baoli and the south end is Katra Baryan. There also a courtyard located in the centre of the mosque which is also laid with red sandstones. Moreover, the mosque complex also includes verandas with a height of 12 ft that are built on both sides of the arch. In the courtyard, there is a large tank which is now used for washing and cleansing. Furthermore, the pulpit of the mosque is made up of white marble.

Since my maternal grandfather once told me an incident about a bird speaking a Quranic verse praising Allah Subhana wa taala in this masjid, I became interested to visit the mosque. I came two times but in a rush and finally the third time, i could perform namaz e juma and spend few more minutes and sing salaam of Aala Hazrat. It was a nice experience.

Well centrally located in heart of Delhi you can take rickshaw mind of taking cars due to narrow road if you are known to such crazy driving. Once you visit the Mosque you will feel at some serene place leaving behind the chaos. A must visit, especially in early morning before 8:00 am to connect with your soul.

Flanked by minarets, the mosque has a traditional design with the prayer hall having seven-arched openings. The mosque has single and double-storeyed apartments on the sides.The central iwan in the middle is flanked by three arches on each side.

This is a good place for pilgrims. You can go on the terrace too which is about 2-3 storey high, by the right side gate. At the back you can see and smell a huge spice market.

When in old Delhi , go to the terrace of Fatehpuri Masjid for stunning view of sunrise or sunset. The evenings here are majestic. You can see locals all over around you celebrating their evening with flying kites and kite fighting also if lucky you can also see pigeon race competition among locals. These are some of must see things in old Delhi.You will witness some of the best blend of nature and human.PS: Do not forget to order for a tea at the entrance at ground floor and specially remind him twice to deliver the tea at the top.

This more than 300 year old red sandstone marvel reminds us of the glorious Indian history of Medieval era...The mosque also has an attached madrasa where islamic education is imparted to young students.. The central courtyard has graves of few people... It also has a Hauz in the centre for ablution, and taps for ablution on all three sides of the mosque..It is surrounded by a busy market from all three sides and a road from one of the sides leads to the Red Fort...It is a spiritual place and a great sight of relief for anyone visiting it...

Old mosque in Delhi. There is an Islamic school (madrasa) also. It is a very big mosque with great facilities and the people are good.It was getting renovated when I was there, and hope to see it become even better.There are all sorts of dry fruit sellers around the mosque, and there is a busy market nearby.The mosque reminds me of the era of the Mughals. Nice and calm place for Muslims to worship God.
