Lottan Masjid(Mosqueis situated in Gour,Malda,India and is about 30 kms. from the town of Malda. It was built during late 15th to early 16th century and was probably built by Sultan Yusuf Shah.The building as per legend is attributed to a dancer of the royal court.Beautifully enamelled paint work can still be seen on the outer walls.Intricate designs in various colours like blue, green,violet,etc., are visible.Due to the use of coloured bricks, it is also known as Painted Mosque.The place is surrounded on all sides by a well kept garden.However, entry inside is barred as the place is locked up. One can only have a view from outside.
