This is a tomb of Khan-e-Jahan Bahadur Jang Kokaltash. Daily thousands of people watch this tomb when they move there, but very, very few know what it is. I have been in Lahore for more than sixteen years, and hundreds of times I passed by this road. it came to my mind to see what it was, and at last I go and found a mausoleum. He is of the nobles of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb Alamgir’s period, and the name of that noble is Khan-e-Jahan Bahadur Zafar Jang Kokaltas’h.

Its 32′ diameter dome, raised on a drum, is reminiscent more of the dome form utilized in the tomb of Anarkali than those of other nobles such as Ali Mardan Khan or Asaf Khan. This is not surprising, since Nawab Bahadur Khan, reputed to be one of Akbar’s nobles, died in 1601, which makes his tomb contemporaneous with the tomb of Anarkali, built in 1615.   [embed]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKQr4tR2oMk[/embed] [embed]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Tg71tGtMGE[/embed] [embed]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2JGppbsBFc[/embed] free counters
