Panipat, the battle city is also a famous and interesting place in the pages of history. Without any surprise, just two kilometers away from this city exists the Kabuli Bagh Mosque. The then Muslim Ruler Babur had built it and named it after his wife Kabuli Begum. Babur constructed this mosque in order to commemorate his victory over Ibrahim Lodhi. After six years, Humayun defeated Salim Shah and got a platform called Chabutara Fateh Mubarak made around the mosque. It bears an inscription dating back to 1527 AD.
There are chambers on two sides of the mosque. In addition to this, there is also an inscription in Persian that runs along the parapet. The main prayer hall is square and has annexes on sides. Its high facade is divided in panels and plastered with lime. Each annex constitutes of nine bays. These bays are crowned with hemispherical domes sitting on low drums.
