Architecture of Tombs of Abdullah Khan & his Wife:
The exquisite white marble tomb of Abdullah Khan’s wife is located nearby, but it is without any roof. Its architecture resembles to those of the tombs built for the royal Princesses. It is built on an elevated platform and is reachable by a flight of four steps. Its arches are filled in with the lattice work and its rectangular roof has four slender minarets, one on each side. A couple of inscriptions on this tomb indicate that a Mosque and a garden were also built here between 1702 and 1704 A.D. along with this tomb, but these two do not exist.
