Kevda Masjidh Cenotaph, Champaner

The Kevda Masjid inside the Citadel of Champaner, in Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park is a beautiful 16th century structure.



In front of this mosque is a simple and symmetric cenotaph.



It is square in shape with a fluted central dome and four corner domes.

Those columns are holding up a lot of weight, including shadows.
