Tomb of Zebun-Nisa
PunjabTombProtected
About 82.2 m west of the gateway at Nawankot lies the stripped brick core of the undated tomb containing two unknown graves, one perhaps of Zebun-Nisa. A portion of the original tessellated floor having Shahjahanian touch and delicacy with white and black marble and sang-e-badal have survived. The existing patches of sang-e-badal flooring are exactly similar to that of the veranda in Jahangirs tomb. Its pyramidal dome, curvilinear externally and hemispherical internally. It is the only example of its class at Lahore.
