Built in the 16th century by Empress Hamida Banu Begum in memory of Emperor Humayun, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is widely regarded as the architectural inspiration for the Taj Mahal. The monument is surrounded by a beautiful Persian-style Char Bagh garden, divided by walkways and water channels that symbolize paradise in Islamic tradition.

Constructed with red sandstone and decorated with elegant white and black marble inlays, the tomb stands on a raised platform crowned with a magnificent central dome and graceful chhatri pavilions. Inside the octagonal chamber lies the cenotaph of Emperor Humayun, while the actual grave rests in a lower chamber below ground level.
