Badshahi mosque is the largest mosque in Pakistan, capable of seating 5,000. It was built in 1674 during the reign of Emperor Aurenzeb, the last of great Mughal ruler. The mosque is attached to the Royal Fort. The front gates of the two buildings face each other across a courtyard. The facade of the prayer hall was inspired by the Friday Mosque in Delhi, but with octagonal minarets instead of the square ones at the Friday Mosque
