Baby Taj

This majestic mausoleum was built to serve as a tomb to a father-in-law of the Mughal emperor Jahangir. It is often called Baby Taj, because of the similarities it shares with its more famous counterpart.

Erected at the beginning of the 17th century, the tomb represents an important milestone in Mughal architecture. It is here that the white marble, characteristic for later Mughal buildings like the Taj Mahal, started to be used instead of red sandstone, which we see on Agra Fort.
