The Wazir Khan Mosque is an exquisite example of Mughal architecture located in the walled city of Lahore, Pakistan. Built between 1634 and 1641 during the reign of Emperor Shah Jahan, the mosque is renowned for its intricate faience tile work and frescoes. Named after its benefactor, the then-governor of Lahore, Hakim Ilm-ud-din Ansari, commonly known as Wazir Khan, the mosque serves as both a place of worship and a historical monument. The mosque complex includes a large prayer hall, a courtyard, and four minarets, each adorned with detailed decorative patterns.
