Jama Masjid in Agra is one of the largest and most beautiful mosques built during the Mughal era. Commissioned by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1648 and dedicated to his beloved daughter, Jahanara Begum, this mosque stands as a fine example of Indo-Islamic architecture. Made of red sandstone with intricate white marble inlays, its large dome, elegant arches, and detailed calligraphy reflect the artistic brilliance of the Mughal craftsmen. Located opposite the Agra Fort, Jama Masjid remains an active place of worship and a symbol of Agra’s spiritual and historical heritage.
