BHONG MASJID | SADIQABAD | RAHIM YAR KHAN | Mosques in Pakistan | bhong masjid - mosque

On the whole, the Bhong Mosque deserves attention, not so much for the architectural merits of composition or aesthetics, but because it reflects a statement of local, contemporary taste that runs counter to much that is dear to international and regional architectural theory and criticism. The issues it raises about the relevance of the intellectual pursuits of architects and critics as well as the inadequacy of unbridled populism help define an important agenda for practicing architects in the Muslim world today.
