Jamali Kamali

The Historical Treasure in Delhi with Haunted Reputation

Located in Delhi's Mehrauli, the Jamali Kamali Mosque and Tomb stands as a testament to historical splendor, nestled within the Archaeological Village complex.

The complex comprises two structures: a mosque and the tomb of two figures, Jamali and Kamali, linked by history and mystery.

Jamali, a revered 16th-century Sufi poet of the Lodi Dynasty, shared his resting place with Kamali, whose life remains shrouded in mystery.

Erected in 1528-1529, the mosque’s design predates and possibly influenced Mughal mosque architecture in India, featuring a grand courtyard and ornate arches.

The tomb, adorned with vibrant tiles and inscriptions of Jamali's poetry, offers an enchanting experience akin to 'stepping into a jewel box'.

Amidst tales of whispers and shadowy figures, the Jamali Kamali Mosque and Tomb also harbors a reputation as a haunted site, adding a layer of intrigue.
