About
Kolkata's principal mosque, built by a wealthy Kutchi Memon trader and modelled on Emperor Akbar's tomb at Sikandra, with a prayer hall capable of holding over 10,000 worshippers.
Did you know? Nakhoda Mosque's design deliberately echoes the tomb of Mughal Emperor Akbar in Sikandra, Agra — a 20th-century Kolkata building consciously modelled on a 300-year-old Mughal mausoleum.
