Overview

Humayun’s Tomb also known as forerunner of Taj Mahal is worth a visit when in the national capital. Behold the marvelous architecture that eventually inspired the iconic Taj. The tomb of the Mughal Emperor Humayun in Delhi was commissioned by Humayun's first wife and chief consort, Empress Bega Begum in 1569-70, and designed by Persian architects chosen by her.

Humayun's Tomb was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent and is located in Nizamuddin East close to the Dina-panah Citadel also known as Purana Qila (Old Fort) that Humayun found in 1533. It was also the first structure to use red sandstone at such a scale. Visit this sublime site which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993.

The interior is a large octagonal chamber with vaulted roof compartments interconnected by galleries or corridors. This octagonal plan is repeated on the second storey. Humayun’s garden-tomb is also called the ‘dormitory of the Mughals’ as in the cells are buried over 150 Mughal family members!
