Introduction
A Mughal-era open Eid prayer ground built in the 17th century under faujdar Farhad Khan, on a hill during the reign of Emperor Aurangzeb. It is laid out like a grand Mughal fort, with three gates, 15 domes and half-domed minars along its walls. It hosts the city's largest Eid congregations and can be visited as a historic monument the rest of the year.
Suggested time: 30-45 minutes
