Discover Srinagar's second-largest mosque, an architectural marvel known for its traditional Kashmiri wooden structure and a vast prayer hall with 378 pillars.
Discover what makes this destination truly special
Aali Masjid stands as a significant example of Kashmir's unique Islamic architecture, located in the historic Eidgah area of Srinagar. As the city's second-largest mosque, it offers a distinct experience compared to the more frequented Jamia Masjid. The structure is built almost entirely of wood, with a design that reflects local building traditions rather than the typical Mughal style. Upon entering, visitors are greeted by a vast, columned prayer hall. The sheer scale of the hall is impressive, supported by 378 deodar wood pillars that create a forest-like effect. The atmosphere inside is calm and contemplative, providing a quiet space away from the city's activity.
