Create an itinerary including Shah-e Doh Shamshira Mosque
Known for its unconventional design, Shah-e Doh Shamshira Mosque features two stories and a bright yellow facade. Built in the 1920s, the building features unusually small minarets topping an exterior that resembles that of Baroque buildings usually found in Europe. The neighboring street market warrants a visit after a stop at this mosque. Shah-e Doh Shamshira Mosque is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our , international travel planner Edition.
