Mosque
This mosque near the Musi River is probably Asaf Jahi. Its elegant facade has three double-recessed arches, the outer arches defined by a cusped border. All arches have ribbed-fruit motif at the apex and tassels on either side. The central arch is on a slight projection that continues onto the parapet, where it is flanked by a pair of minarets. The parapet consists of a row of open arches with a band of cut-out flowers above. Its circular crenellations have a row of miniature domed finials behind it. The parapet with all its decorative elements wraps around the octagonal corner minarets.
