Jamia Masjid

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:17:49

In the heart of Leh's market area, the Jamia Masjid is an attractive 20th-century confection of faceted arches and three layered floors topped by a domed tower and minaret. The first mosque on this site was built in 1666–67 sealing a political agreement between Ladakh's then ruler Deldan Namgyal and the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. Men only inside.
