Yesterday I visited the largest mosque in India, the Jama Masjid located in Delhi. It is walking distance from the Red Fort from where I started but was too tired after walking for about 3 hours in the Red Fort complex and before that the Chandani Chowk area. So I took a tuk-tuk for INR 20 only to realize that the distance covered was not worth even INR 5.
A long pathway that is well-paved takes you from the main road to the mosque entrance and is lined on both sides by small shops that were selling fascinating Indian novelties ranging from jewelry and gems to carpets and shawls to silverware as souvenirs. I could not resist the ornate carving on the brass glasses and purchased a set of 4 bargaining from 1600 down to INR 900

This leads to about 30 staircases to the main entrance. This grand structure is only the entrance and you can optionally leave your shoes outside for a fee of INR 10 This opens up the grandest, magnificent, or any other superlative, what you may, a structure that is the Jama Masjid. Between the gate and the mosque is a huge open space normally used for gathering and offering prayers on special occasions like a Muslim festival.

In the middle is also a large water tank that can be used to wash hands and legs before proceeding for the prayers and the main prayer hall is off-limit for casual tourists.

I wondered at the tall minarets of the mosque and the beautifully-decorated walls of the main structure. By any standards, this place is HUGE and no photo can do it justice.

The best part of the visit was getting my ear wax removed from one Mohd. Aslam for INR 50 per ear who is willing to be contacted on the number shown in the photo. He said they have been practicing this for 3 generations now.

Monument Tips
• Visit the mosque in the morning since the sunlight falls facing the mosque only up to 12 noon and after that, you may have to click photos with the shade of the mosque and also the grand entrance upon themself and these two are the most photogenic structures.
• There are no entry fees for the Mosque.
• There is no need to remove shoes outside the mosque but only outside the main prayer hall.
Have you been to a place of worship that is the largest of its kind in the town or region? I’d be interested in knowing your experiences.
Until then… Happy guiding
