3. Jami Masjid

OLD DELHI.   This impressive structure is India's – some say Asia's – largest mosque. Constructed by 5000 laborers from 1644 to 1656, its interior courtyard is large enough to accommodate 25,000 devout Muslims. Non-Muslims will want to call ahead before planning a visit, since the open hours vary by day and season. All visitors should dress conservatively (no bare shoulders or knees) and be prepared to remove their shoes. Admission is free but for a slight charge you can climb the minaret for an up-close look at the construction and a panoramic view of Old Delhi. (A man must accompany women entering the minaret.)   (© 10Best)
