Humayun’s Tomb is a stunning example of Persian-inspired Mughal architecture. Humayun’s Tomb in Delhi was built in the 16th century and attracts millions of national and international tourists every year. This monument houses the tomb of Mughal Emperor Humayun and beautifully preserves centuries-old charm and grandeur.
Commissioned by Hamida Banu Begum, the architecture of Humayun’s Tomb closely resembles that of the Taj Mahal. However, contrary to popular belief, Humayun himself did not build this tomb; instead, it was constructed by his wife, Hamida Banu Begum, as a symbol of her love and devotion to her husband.
