The City of Kapurthala, is famous as the ‘Paris of Punjab’ due to its beautiful buildings that remind you of the French capital.  Among the numerous buildings and monuments that dot the city, the Moorish mosque is the most unique, for it transports you not to France but to Morocco in North Africa. This beautiful mosque is a replica of the famous Koutoubia Mosque in Marakech in Morocco.

Apart from the Mosque, Maharaja Jagatjit Singh also built a State Gurudwara and a temple for his Sikh subjects and Hindu subjects.
