Anda Masjid
The mosque was built in 1608/09 CE by I'tibar Khan, a noble in the court of Ibrahim Adil Shah II. It is a two-story building following the Indo-Islamic style of architecture. The mosque occupies the first floor and part of the ground floor. The remaining part of the first floor probably served as a sarai. The first floor contains an open terrace surrounded by low parapet. The structure is topped with a central ribbed dome and is flanked by four minarates.
Jamiya Masjid
A Mosque built by Ali Adil Shah I over 300 years ago for the entire city (jumma = public gathering). The Kuran inscriptions in gold is the main attraction. It can contain 2250 devotees. The intricately carved mihrab (the niche that points the direction to Mecca) is absolutely brilliant and is in stark contrast to the generally simple and bare architecture of the mosque itself (which is quite typical for the Deccan monuments)
This building was constructed in 1646 by Sultan Mohammed. It served as a justice hall. On the eastern side lies a large water body. There are several ruined structures in the complex. The Asar Mahal functions as a mosque.
