Isa Khan's Tomb
Isa Khan's Tomb is an architectural gem located within the Humayun's Tomb complex in Delhi, India. Built in 1547–1548 during the reign of Sher Shah Suri, the mausoleum is dedicated to Isa Khan Niazi, a noble at the courts of Sher Shah Suri and Islam Shah Suri.
The tomb is octagonal in shape and constructed primarily of red sandstone, reflecting the Lodi architectural style. It features intricate lattice screens, ornamented canopies, and glazed tiles, making it a visually striking monument. Adjacent to the tomb is the mosque of Isa Khan, which was built around the same time and adds to the historical significance of the site.
The entire complex is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Humayun's Tomb, recognized for its cultural and architectural importance. Restoration efforts led by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, in collaboration with the Archaeological Survey of India, have helped preserve the tomb's grandeur.
