ALAMGIR MASJID, BHOPAL






Address- Crossing Kamla Nahru Park, VIP Road, Bhopal – 462001, Madhya Pradesh.


DHAI SEEDHI MSAJID (MEANING 2 AND 1/2 STAIRS MOSQUE)


Dhai Seedi Ki Masjid ("The mosque of 2 and a half steps"), one of the smallest mosques in Asia Asia/World (not 100% sure), is located right across the road from Taj-ul-Masajid. It is located within the campus of Gandhi Medical College, which is built on top of an old fort. Dhai Seedi Ki Masjid is in one of the watchtowers. Possibly, it is also the oldest Mosque in Bhopal city, initially built as a makeshift mosque during the construction of the fort.


Bhopal is home to the most of the spectrum of culture that is characteristic of India, and has preserved most of its inheritances from its various rulers, most significant among them being the Muslims. The splendid and opulent architecture of those times is reflected in Bhopal’s many mosques.
