Darya Khan's Tomb
दरिया खान का मकबरा
A group of red-sandstone domed tombs, along with a mosque and the Somvati Kund water tank. It is quiet and rarely crowded.
Darya Khan was a minister to Sultan Mahmud II. His tomb, built in the early 16th century, has a large red-sandstone dome with small domed pavilions at each of the four corners, and it was once decorated with colored glazed tiles. Around it are a mosque, a caravanserai and the Somvati Kund water tank, forming a complete architectural complex. It lies on the road south of the village to Rupmati Pavilion, so you can stop on the way. Hathi Mahal (Elephant Palace) is nearby.
