Masjid-e-Bilal is one of the largest mosques in Bengaluru. Visitors go here to observe its Turkish-style architecture and experience the local religious atmosphere. It serves as a significant center for the city's Muslim community.

Getting There

The mosque is located on Bannerghatta Road. From the city centre, it is accessible via taxi, ride-sharing apps, or local buses. Depending on the traffic conditions, which can be heavy in this part of the city, the journey typically takes 30 to 60 minutes.
