Message from Chris Betzmann

Famous as the architectural precursor to the Taj Mahal, Humayun’s tomb was built in 1572 by the Mughal Empress Beda Begum. The construction of the monument was overseen by Akbar and is one of the first garden mausoleums in India. The design of the tomb incorporates various styles from the Persian, Turkic and Rajput architecture with exquisite work of stone carving and lattice work.
