Mosque

Ali Barid Shah

The five horizontal bands above the arched facades were intended for coloured tilework. The parapet and the base of the massive dome are elaborately treated with trefoil elements. The inside walls of the tomb have double tiers of arched recesses flanking each entrance. Here some tilework remains, adorning the arch tassels, apex, and the rows of horizontal bands above the arches. A continuous band at the top of the walls is also filled with tilework and calligraphy.
