The story of Humayun's Tomb
Built for the Mughal emperor Humayun and completed around 1570, it was the first great garden tomb in India. His widow, Empress Bega Begum, is credited with commissioning it.
The domed tomb sits in a Persian-style garden divided into four parts by water channels. Its design, with a double dome and a raised platform, was later perfected in the Taj Mahal. UNESCO listed it in 1993.
