Bibi Ka Maqbara is the tomb of Begum Rabia Durani, wife
of Emperor Aurangzeb. The arched alcove surmounted by a swelling dome,
exhibit the excellence of Persian architecture. The layout and
surrounding of the tomb is very much similar to that of Taj but some how
the architecture fails to produce the magic of Taj.
