SindhTombProtected
These two graves of Talpur Mirs. There are eight stone pavilion tombs, three brick mosques, two mausoleums with curvilinear type, and several carved stone graves with inscriptions in the courtyard. Most of the tombs date back to the first half of the 19th century, but some tombs belong to the 17th and 18th centuries as well. Some of these tombs are the best specimen of delicate and refined carved work on stone, especially the tomb of Mian Nasir Muhammad which was built in the last decade of the 17th century. One of the mosques contains coloured paintings of some holy places of the Muslims.
