Also
called the Shaking Minarets, the Siddi Bashir Mosque is renowned for its unique
construction. The minarets vibrate on
shaking and stall almost as surprisingly within a few seconds. The vibration is set off by a slight exertion
of force at the arch of the upper gallery.
The vibrations of the Minarets have aroused a lot of curiosity to the
extent that the British rulers dismantled one of the minarets to understand the
mystery behind it. Intricately carved
balconies hang in mesmerized beauty on the 21 ft high minarets. |
