Tomb of Mahabat Khan (Baghbanpura)

PunjabTombProtected
The monument lies in Baghbanpura, surviving in the paneled and niched enclosure walls. The original gate is provided from the west, built by a Parsi Merchant of Bombay. In the center there is a brick built platform bearing a brick built grave, which is said to be of Mahabat Khan. It is however, probable that the garden was founded by Mahabat Khan and the tomb is that of his son, who was given the title of Mahabat Khan after the death of his father.
