The squat building, graced by high arched entrances topped by a bulbous dome is surrounded by formal gardens. This style of architecture was refined over the years, ultimately resulting in the magnificence of the Taj Mahal in Agra. Haji Begum too is buried in the tomb.Entry is free on Friday. On other days, there is a small entry fee. There is an excellent view of the surrounding country from the terraces of the tomb.
