Wallajah Big Mosque also known as Triplicane big mosque is masjid situated in Triplicane. It's very beautifully built. You can see more pigeons in this area which is a beautiful view

Triplicane Big Mosque (also called Wallajah Mosque) is a mosque located in Triplicane High Road, Triplicane in Chennai. Constructed in the Mughal architectural style, the mosque was built in 1795 by the family of Muhammad Ali Khan Wallajah, the Nawab of Arcot during 1765. It has a large prayer hall, a tank and a large ground in front. The entire structure is constructed with granite without the use of iron or wood. The Nawab of Arcot was a loyal ally of the British who offered him Chepauk Palace where he could house his military and administrative buildings. It is believed that Nawab Muhammad Ali moved to Chepauk, located in Triplicane in 1768. There were around 20,000 Marakayar Muslims who moved with him to the city. It was then the largest community of Muslims in South India after Hyderabad. The Nawab had full control of the region and all the cases were resolved under Muslim Law irrespective of the religion of the accused. Historians believe that after the mosque was built, it added to the cultural mix in Triplicane, which had a famous Hindu temple in Parthasarathy Temple and the Portuguese Christian stronghold of San Thome. The Nawab of Arcot was friendly towards fellow Hindus, appointing a Hindu as his chief personal secretary. A chronogram written in Persian by Raja Makhhan Lal Bahdur Khirat, the Hindu Munshi of the Nawab, is found on the entrance to the prayer hall. The mosque is the largest and one of the oldest in Chennai and is active as a place of worship. It is administered by Prince of Arcot Endowments Trust. Most of the administrative staff of the mosque are Hindus, symbolizing peaceful coexistence between the two religions.

One of the oldest masjid in Chennai and it's entirely build on granite without any steel rods. It's a heritage monument and we'll maintained.

Triplicane Big Mosque (also called Wallajah Mosque) is perhaps the Most Famous Mosque in Chennai.... It was Built By the Family of Muhammed Ali Khan Wallajah who was the erstwhile Nawab of Arcot in 1795 AD..... * Quaid-e-Millat Ismayil Sahib's Kabar Here * Metro station is located next to this mosque...

Beautiful mosque built by Arcot Nawab during the later part of 1700. A long courtyard that no other mosque in Chennai has, I think. As one enters the courtyard of the mosque, on the left hand side is the magnificent building which used to the Ottoman Turkish Embassy. The legacy of Madras stands tall there.

I feel that this mosque has a very noticable spiritual connection with me. Everytime I visit here I'm humbled and feel very peaceful and gratified after offering namaz in this masjid. Moreover it's known for the dargah of Hazrat Beher- ul - uloom inside the mosque premises. Must visit mosque in Chennai for its grandiose architecture and the tranquility it offers.
