Jahangir Tomb

Outside Lahore, there is yet another place which abounds in Mogul taste in architecture. Shahdara, once a place of royalties, located on the right bank of the Ravi River just on the outskirts of Lahore today lies in obscurity. In the Mughal ear, Shahdara was a halting place for the Mughals crossing the Ravi along the road from Lahore towards Kashmir, Kabul, and as stepping staging camp for hunting in near town of Sheikhupura. Many visitors who come to Lahore, usually skip this place to visit and thus lose an opportunity to see some of the great Mughal artwork and architecture. Here lie buried Jahangir (Akbar's son and Shah Jahan's father) Noor Jehan (Jahangir's beloved wife) and Asaf Jah (Noor Jahan's brother).
