Rani Rupmati's
Mosque , Ahmedabad
Rani Rupmati Masjid named after the princess of Dhar who married the
Sultan of Ahmedabad, is another fine example of the Indo-Saracenic blended
style. A high central arch, 3 imposing domes, slim minarets, carved galleries
and an exquisite Mihrab are the high points. Note how the dome is raised to
allow light in around the base but cut out the glare of the sun. The tomb of
Rani Rupmati is next to the mosque.
