Magnificent yet peaceful structure with not so much crowd around even during Dasara. Loved the architecture and amalgamation of Indo-Islamic style of the minar with a brass Kalash intricate design which is a rare combination of style. The kitchen that served food to travellers (musafir) is still active which now houses students of its madrasa and serves food to them.

The steps leading to the top of the minarets is in repairs and hence closed for public. Hoping this would be repaired soon and allow enthusiast tourists who appreciate the architecture to have a city view atop the minarets.

Visited in September 2019. An old historic mosque. No seperate place for ablution for Ladies. However they can pray in a seperate mat arranged. Lots of pigeons around. Less than 1 km from Banglore - Mysore highway. Ample car parking space.

“Jamia Masjid is built by Tipu Sultan near the Bangalore Gate in the eastern part of the fort in 1787 AD, this Mosque was used regularly for worship by him…The panoramic view of the area from the top is splendid… The building is an interesting example of the combination of Hindu and Islamic Architecture.” – this is written on the Name plate of this mosque. When I reached there it was twilight and this yellow building seemed divine to me. The art and crafts of two minarets are majestic. Anyone can stop after seeing this extraordinary beautiful mosque on the side of the road.

Built around 1782 during the rule of Tipu Sultan, Jamia Masjid in Srirangapatna, about 120km from Bengaluru, is a heritage site being maintained by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).This is such a beautiful mosque to visit . We were not allowed to take photographs inside the mosque.
