About About the place

The Mahabat Khan Mosque, constructed in 1630 by Mughal governor Nawab Mahabat Khan, stands as a significant landmark in Peshawar, Pakistan. Located in the bustling Andershehar Bazar of Sarafa Bazaar, this mosque is notable as the only Mughal-era mosque in Peshawar that survived the depredations of the Sikhs, though its minarets were partially damaged and later restored by the British. The mosque features a white marble facade, eight minarets, a large courtyard with a central ablution pool, and intricate tilework. It remains a fully functional mosque and a vital part of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's religious life.
