The Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah, often referred to as the "Baby Taj," is a Mughal mausoleum located in Agra, India. It was commissioned by Nur Jahan, the wife of Mughal Emperor Jahangir, for her father Mirza Ghiyas Beg, who held the title of I'timād-ud-Daulah, meaning "Pillar of the State." Constructed between 1622 and 1628, the tomb is renowned for its intricate craftsmanship and exquisite marble inlay work, which served as a precursor to the later and more famous Taj Mahal.
