THE JUMMAH MUSJED, AT DELHI.

The Jumma Musjed, or Friday's Mosque, is the principal place of religious worship of the followers of the Mahommedan doctrine in India. This edifice was built by the Emperor Shah Jehan, as before mentioned. The domes, and all the other parts which appear white, are of Cashmerian marble, the rest of red stone procured in the neighbourhood of Delhi. In regularity of design and correctness of execution this building is considered of the first class. It is approached by three magnificent gates, one of which is the subject of the first plate of these Views.
