About About the place

Safdarjung’s Tomb is a late Mughal-era monument constructed in 1754 as a mausoleum for Mirza Muqarrab Khan, a powerful figure in the Mughal court. The tomb is characterized by its sandstone and marble construction, blending Mughal and Indian architectural styles. It’s often compared to the Taj Mahal and Humayun’s Tomb, though on a smaller scale. The complex includes a mosque, a library, and a courtyard, all surrounded by extensive, well-maintained gardens. While it may show signs of age and requires ongoing maintenance, it remains a significant historical site and a tranquil destination for visitors.

We decided to visit this place and I think that because it was the weekend, it was too crowded. We were not able to have a good tour since so many people were there and it was not a very nice experience. The place seemed good but I guess the crowd ruined it for us.

The place is so beautiful that I could not take my eyes off it. The place is a heritage building which has stunning architecture and the Victorian style walls are simply amazing. We visited the place on a weekday and it had a lot of people. But things were arranged in a proper way and we could have the tour nicely.

Our journey to this place was nothing less than a magnificent memory. This is the most beautiful place I have visited and stayed. I have never experienced luxury like that and the hospitality was top notch. I am still so grateful for all the people who hosted us and took us on an incredible journey.

I did an 11 day tour in Iceland and it was awesome. The place is nothing I have ever seen and it was one of the best trips of my life. I went in June and the weather was great and clear. I visited all the main attractions and did some hiking and everything about this city seemed perfect. The best part was seeing the northern lights and being mesmerized by them. This place is definitely worth visiting.
