This sunset was taken at Badshahi Mosque, Lahore.

The rooms found in the corridors surrounding the courtyard used to be the part of the madrassah.

Another inside view of Badshahi Mosque, Lahore's most famous landmark and a major tourist attraction epitomising the beauty, passion and grandeur of the Mughal era. Built in 1671 by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb Alamgir. Like the character of its founder, the mosque is bold, vast and majestic in its expression. Its design was inspired by Islamic, Persian and Central Asian influences.

The walls and ceilings are beautifully decorated with colourful panels filled with rich hand written calligraphy from The Holy Quran and artistically made floral paintings and carvings. The Mosque truly is a wonder of the Mughal Era.

I visited Badshahi Mosque, Pakistan's (and South Asia's) second biggest mosque over the weekend. During peak prayer times, such as Eid, up to 100,000 people can pray together at once. In mid-summer, when the temperature soars between 40-50 deg C (100-120 deg F), the paved bricks are too hot to walk on, so visitors cross the courtyard on a narrow path of moistened mats.
