Tomb of Shah Yusuf Gardezi
PunjabTombProtected
A tomb of Shah Yusuf Gardezi is one storey flat roofed simple rectangular building with straight walls. Its elevation consists of almost unbroken surfaces of four vertical walls, the sole relief being provided by an oblong portion slightly projected to frame the door way and to contain the mihrab in the interior. This building depends for its charm not on any architectural features but on the appeal of its coloured tiles which cover every inch of the structure from outside.
