Hiran Minar is an early 17th-century Mughal era complex in Sheikhupura, in the Pakistani province of Punjab. It was built at the site of a game reserve in honor of Mughal Emperor Jahangir's beloved antelope, Mansraj. The emperor is remembered for his fondness of nature, and his complex embodies the Mughal relationship between humans, pets and hunting.

Emperor Jahangir's unique tribute to his beloved companion began the tradition of the burial of animals for several centuries on.
