Built in the 14th century CE possibly by Khan-E-Jahan (General) Malik Maqbul Tilangani of the Delhi Sultanate. This is Delhi's second largest mosque and older than the Jama Masjid by about 300 years. Built of Delhi quartzite, the Mosque and its surroundings have with stood the ravages of time. It's design has strong Central Asian motifs being especially very similar to the blue tiles mosques of Samarkand in Uzbekistan. No tickets are required and Archaeological Survey of India provides more than one guard for security, I'd still recommend visiting only in the morning and afternoons as by the evening the local riff raff boys come to drink at this beautiful site. Very steep steps to enter the mosque complex and within it also the main square is all cobbled, not suitable for persons with reduced mobility.

This mosque was built in 14th century, as a part of Jahanpanah, The 4th Medivel City of Delhi under the rule of Tuglaq Dynasty by Muhammad bin Tughlaq. Now this mosque is abandoned & ignored. There's not even a security guard there (atleast when i visited). Some people go where to play cards, smoke weed and to drink, alot of empty bottles there are thrown everywhere. But for those who consider themselves an Urban Explorer, this place is heaven. You can unrestrictedly climb anywhere, find beautiful, peaceful views & take photos which will make your friends go "dude, where is it?".

A magnificent historical place with zero care and a limited history... A huge mosque with almost a sq. Km area of courtyard inside. Awesome architecture gumbaz and symmetrical arches throughout the place. It's one of the must visit places in Delhi but sadly anyone visits. Also to be noted, illicit activities also go on at this place as there's limited security. One guard. Efforts are being made to restore the place but it seems like, it will be too little too late...

This is a very beautiful structure spread in the centre of begumpur village or we can say the village is letter surrounded. There are very less available in the literature about this place. The mosque is not operational and now the place is not in a very good condition due to lack of care from government and local communities. Sometimes some unwanted activities can also be observed here. Sunset is beautiful here.

A huge space in between a cramped Begampur colony. The monument is quite remarkable.

It may not be worth visiting if you're travelling from far, but if you are visiting the Hauz Khas fort you must come here. Its open all the time, free, I found kids playing cricket there. It was really peaceful, enjoyed.

It may surprise the first time visitor, to see this sprawling mosque in a busy and crowded location like begumpur in the heart of South Delhi. Built sometime in the middle of 13th century, the mosque has all the hallmark of Tughlaq era. Beautiful, bare architecture, and stunning open space, the masjid is biggest in Delhi along with Jama masjid

Right there, in middle of South Delhi. It's a ruin. Pretty, waiting for salvation, recognition. Poor place is magnificent slowly crumbling away. It's massive and relatably safe to visit during the day time. There are parks all around, and the 'minars' (read towers) are accessible, so is the roof. Not very littered, but signs of people coming here to drink to get away from public sight is visible. Local teenagers might be visiting to smoke substance, or to sneak away a drink. This dfinitely could become heritage property that gets sanction for maintenance. Alas, it doesn't appear to be so. Great location to shoot, or sit when is bit too hot. Access is easy, via a car in close proximity with a minutes walk to the main entry.

Holey abandoned mosque Batman 🤯🌇🤩🕌💜🦇 Found this B-E-A-utiful place by total and complete accident looking for a completely different ruin 🥳🔥🤙 I was wondering around this lovely lil neighborhood on the hunt for a small tomb that a friend told me about when I stumbled upon this absolutely maaaassive once great place of worship 🙏🌌🫠 This ole mosque was significantly larger than the famous Jama Masjid mosque in old Delhi... Like literally double the size but without one single soul inside of her..... As opposed to tripping over hundreds of people left and right as you try to make your way into the tourist trap of a functional mosque downtown 🪤 😜🙈 If I'm honest exploring this once grand place at sunset was an absolute treat!!! Simply incredible watching the golden hour come in full swing behind these incredible domes while painting these pillars with enchanted light 👌🌞👌🧡👌📸 The courtyard is larger than any sports stadium that I have ever visited and is still somehow covered completely in stone 🪨😃🏟️ The outlying hallways were super long and full of nooks and cranny's to explore. What was impressive to me was just how insanely precise all the geometric shapes that adorn these long corridors full of gigantic hand carved columns were... Staggering honestly 💠🏛️📐🔍 While exploring I managed to find a room completely full of bats! Literally 100's of these fantastic winged mammals hanging out (ooooooo yes I said it) getting ready for their nightly flight into the abyss 🚀🌃🤙 I find it amazing that this entire neighborhood is built around this ginormous ancient wonder... That in itself is pretty freakin' cool y'all! Just to see these new apartment complexes built directly next to something 600 years old..... You simply just don't get to see that everyday fam 🤘 In the most literal sense this is the textbook definition of a hidden gem 💎❤️‍🔥🗺️📍🧭

It is a good place.. very wide almost square in shape.. with stairs and u can go up where u see those round ceiling structure.. the structure is a bit too ruined.. but this place is also ruined this smokers.. n rednecks.. visit carefully..

The historical Begumpur Mosque is located at Malviya Nagar, Sri Aurobindo Ln, Begumpur, New Delhi, Delhi 110017. Begumpur Mosque is like a twin to its counterpart at Jama Masjid, similar in size but completely opposite in its present state to the Old Delhi mosque which is still in use. Similar to the Khirki Mosque nearby in its architectural motifs, there’s a debate as to whether the mosque was built during Muhammad-bin-Tughlaq’s or his successor, Firoz Shah's reign, with evidence pointing more towards the latter as Juna Shah, Firoz Shah’s prime minister, had constructed many mosques with similar architectural motifs (Khirki being one). But the maintenance of the mosque is not satisfactory. Need to take care.

Great experience to come there.

I stumbled upon this Body Spa when I was looking for relaxation, and I'm so glad I did. The therapists are skilled, and the atmosphere is serene
