The Tomb of Jahangir in Lahore, Pakistan, is an exquisite example of Mughal architecture and serves as the final resting place of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir, who ruled from 1605 to 1627. Located in the Shahdara Bagh area, the tomb is set within a vast and beautifully landscaped garden. The structure dates back to the 17th century and is known for its intricate marble inlay work, detailed frescoes, and the impressive use of red sandstone. The tomb is encased within a high wall and features four minarets, one at each corner. The interior is equally stunning, with a cenotaph made of white marble inlaid with semi-precious stones in floral patterns.
