This monument consists of a low dalan (rear-chamber) behind a simple verandah with battered walls which opens towards the east. Remains of another room with massive walls and square headed doorways stand immediately to the south-east of the dalan. Close to the dalan and adjoining the north-east corner of the enclosure of Humayun's mausoleum are the remains of another double-storeyed house with a verandah on its eastern front which once faced the river. The details of the red sandstone columns and lintels supported on brackets indicate that this was a construction of the Humayun-Akbar period. The house stands structurally independent of Tomb of Humayun. This article is a stub. You can enrich by adding more information to it. Send your Write Up to content@indianetzone.com |
