Malda, India

Adina Mosque

The Adina Mosque is a historical mosque located in Pandua, a town in the Malda district of West Bengal, India. It was the largest structure of its kind in the Indian subcontinent as an imperial mosque of the Bengal Sultanate, built during the reign of Sikandar Shah, who was later buried inside. The vast architecture resembles the hypostyle of the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus, a style that was used during the introduction of Islam in new areas.
