Why Go: This elegant mosque is noted for its twin windows of pierced stone, worked in style of a tree with palm leaves and curving tendrils.

It was constructed by Sidi Saiyad, a slave of Ahmed Shah, and has beautiful carved stone windows depicting the intricate intertwining of the branches of a tree. Wooden models of these windows, a fine example of Indo-Sarcenic architecture are kept in the New York and Kensington museums.
