The Sidi Saiyyed Mosque in Ahmedabad, India, is renowned for its stunning architectural beauty, particularly its intricate stone latticework. Built in 1573 by Sidi Saiyyed, a nobleman in the army of the last Sultan of Gujarat, the mosque is a fine example of Indo-Islamic architecture. Its most famous feature is the series of exquisitely carved jalis (lattice screens) on its windows, especially the iconic "Tree of Life" motif, which has become a symbol of the city.
