A 1/2 destroyed single domed mosque, now stripped of decorations. Nearby, lies the haunted Khooni Khan pond, of 1857 Mutiny deadbodies dumping connection. Some people claim it to be haunted. The Kamala Nehru Ridge park with dense foliage and tracks gives a quiet ambience.

It has been recently been restored by the ASI team in Jan 2018. Though half of the base structure has fallen the rest still carries the feel which helps you imagine the monument in full glory. Do take time to visit this place in the corner of the bonta Park among other equally mysterious vintage structures in the compound.

Built by Firuz Shah Tughlaq of the Delhi Sultanate during the thirteenth century, this royal mosque was built especially for him when he would come and reside at the Khusk-i-Shikar (Pir Ghaib) hunting lodge nearby.

The mosque is closed. It is abandoned. A very sad condition.

It derives its name, meaning the 'mosque with four towers', from its original four domes. These four towers disappeared with time. The mosque was constructed by the firoz shah tuglaq as a part of his palace called Kushk-i-Shikar (the hunting lodge). Its inside Bonta (Kamla Nehri Ridge park). Entry is not allowed for public and is in depleted state.
