Since my last visit to the Tomb, lots of work has been done in way of restoration by Aga Khan Trust and recently it has been included as the World Heritage Site.
A tomb of the Sher Shah time, that of a noble in the court of Sher Shah, who built this tomb in his own life time, within the complex of Humayun Tomb Complex, this is one of the most beautiful tomb, octagonal in shape which dates back to the 16th century.
This is one of the most lovely garden tombs in Delhi and is perfectly proportional when seen from the entry point. The adjacent mosque also has been restored and looks fabulous. When inside the tomb look at the ceiling. It is beautiful. The lattice work inside the tomb is simply incredible. The mosque is one of the most beautiful structure of the Sher Shah times.
This tomb complex is within an enclosed wall and now part of the Humayun Tomb World Heritage Complex.
