The construction of this place began during the Farooqi rule. Unfortunately, the construction took way too long and couldn't finish in time before Farooqi leader Adil Shah's demise. The work was then supervised and completed by Emperor Akbar. The construction of the Jama Masjid was started in 1590 and completed 5 years later. There are two big minarets that rise majestically across the Burhanpur skyline. The Jama Masjid also has three round cupolas. What is the most striking part of the Jama Masjid in Burhanpur is its interior that displays a splendid work of Islamic architecture. The monument has some very majestic artwork on its symmetric pillars and all this has been conserved very well.
