Humayun's tomb

"Humayun's tomb is a complex of buildings of Mughal architecture located in Delhi. It encompasses the main tomb of the Emperor Humayun as well as numerous others, including the Barber's Tomb. The complex is a World Heritage Site and the first example of this type of Mughal architecture in India. This style of mausoleum was the same sort that created the Taj Mahal in Agra. The tomb of Humayun was built by Haji Begham, Humayun's widow from around 1565. Restoration work by the Archaeological Survey of India was completed in March 2003, enabling water to flow through the watercourses in the gardens once more".
