Indo Islamic Heritage
Beriyon Wali Masjid is a local mosque located in the bustling Bazaria Nihal Chand area of Farrukhabad, Uttar Pradesh. It serves as a place of worship for the Muslim community in this historic city, known for its Nawabi-era heritage and proximity to the Ganges River. While not widely documented as a major tourist attraction, it reflects the region's Islamic architectural influences from the 18th-19th centuries.
Beriyon Wali Masjid, situated in the heart of Farrukhabad city, is one of the lesser-known but significant Islamic religious sites in Uttar Pradesh. Farrukhabad, founded in 1714 by Muhammad Khan Bangash, a Pathan governor under the Mughals, has a rich history blending Mughal and Nawabi influences, with several mosques and shrines dotting the landscape. The name "Beriyon Wali Masjid" (possibly derived from local terminology referring to a feature like berries or a historical association) indicates its community importance in the densely populated Bazaria Nihal Chand locality, a commercial and residential hub near Railway Road.
