Visit To Moti Masjid

Moti Masjid is a Pearl Mosque built in 1662 of polished marble by Aurangzeb for his own personal use and security. This small and totally enclosed pearl mosque (shoes must be removed here) made of marble is next to the baths. One curious feature of the mosques is that its outer walls are oriented exactly to be in symmetry with the rest of the fort, while the inner walls are slightly askew, so that the mosque has the correct orientation with the Mecca.
