Badshahi Mosque
With three domes and eight minarets, the Badshahi Mosque has been a crown on Lahore’s head for more than three centuries. It was commissioned by Emperor Aurangzeb in 1671, with construction of the mosque lasting for two years until 1673. It is a must see place, a fine sample of Mughal architecture, though the present building appears to have been almost rebuilt in the 50's. The sheer size of the place especially domes and marinates is amazing. It has some fine art work in side. It is beautifully lit up in the evenings and is best viewed in the evening from the nearby roof-top restaurants.
