Chiniot, Pakistan
Shahi Mosque
Shahi Mosque is a historic 17th century mosque located in Chiniot, Punjab, Pakistan. Constructed between 1646 and 1655, the Mughal Grand Vizier Saadullah Khan is traditionally identified as its builder; accordingly he built the mosque at the place where he had received his education. However, the 17th-century poet Mita Chenabi attributes its construction to Nawab Hifzullah Khan, the son of Saadullah Khan, when he was the deputy-governor of Punjab.
