It was fascinating experience for me to visit the oldest city of Pakistan. While entering the city from motorway the first prompt I got on my phone was for Masjid Mahabat Khan. It was a Friday prayer time, I decided to offer prayer at the same mosque. Its a Mosque build in 16th century by governer of the Mughal empire. A very fine architecture of white marble, with fine decoration inside. Colour glasses of windows along wood craft of the doors gives an excellent look. Highly recommended to visit the place in the vicinity of historical Qisa Khawany Bazar.

Famous Masjid in all over peshawar because of historical history about it. Its situated in Andar Sher Bazar Peshawar.

It is cultural heritage of pakhtuns. Renovation work is also started there on the main pillars.One should must visit this place to feel the incredible heritage of golden muslim era.

Beautiful masjid. renovation is in the process, but overall, really great and historic masjid would love to visit again

The historic mosque located near the yadgar chawok, in the sona bazar street, with glorious building vast enough for hundreds of prayers at a single time! The inside of the mosque is very clean and well furnished and there is calm once you entered inside! A real place of peace and worship!The best time to visit Mosque is after Fajar prayer (around 7.00 AM-12.00 PM), the surrounding market is not fully opened hence you can easily visit the place. The architecture is really beautiful, the authorities are working on restoration but the restoration work is not according to the standards (I think some of the responsibility is on tourists as well to not destroy things).The Mahabat Khan Mosque (Urdu, Pashto: مہابت خان مسجدis a 17th-century mosque in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.

This mosque is really old and when you enter the praying area and when you look up towards the ceiling, its such a nostalgic ride. The mosque has 3 main entrances from all sides of bazaars in Peshawar. Not much tourist traffic but its worth visiting and the administration should pay attention to its preservation.

This is seventeenth century mosque built by Mahabat Khan ruler of Peshawar. Very beautiful. With state of the art caligraphy.

Lovely masjid, but the government need to look after this historic masjid. Beautiful hall but it shows it’s age.

Masjid Mahabat Khan, Peshawar. This is one of the many Mughal era mosques in Peshawar. This one dates from the 17th century. It’s named after a Mughal governor of Peshawar.Sadly, as is a recurring theme in Pakistan, it is yet another heritage site in a state of disrepair. These photos give you an idea of what it may have been like in bygone years.
