Shehar Ki Masjid, Champaner, Gujarat, India
Shehar Ki Masjid is located in Champaner, which comes under the Panchmahal District. It is believed that this mosque was built by the royal family of Pavagadh and is located close to the royal residence. Local inhabitants also believe that this mosque was the private masjid of the Sultans of Pavagadh, featuring around 5 mehrabs. There are two minarets that flank the arched doorway of the main entrance. This main entrance is further covered by sloped chhajja, a projection. Shehar Ki Masjid features a colonial style landscape from outside, which is found in many of the Archaeological Survey of India monuments.
I traveled to India for the first time to present a keynote at the 3rd Global Conference on Emerging Trends for Business Librarianship, November 21-22, 2017 at the Indian Institute of Management - Ahmedabad, India. We did some sightseeing on our last day in India and visited the amazing Rani ki vav stepwell near Patan, north of Ahmedabad. I am so very glad that I made it here. From the Wikipedia page, "Rani ki vav, or Ran-ki vav (Queen’s step well) was constructed during the rule of the Chaulukya dynasty. It is generally assumed that it was built in the memory of Bhima I (r. c. 1022–1064) by his widowed queen Udayamati and probably completed by Udayamati and Karna after his death. A reference to Udayamati building the monument is in Prabandha Chintamani, composed by the Jain monk Merunga Suri in 1304 AD." The term vav is Gujarati for stepwell.
