with side walls that once bore inscriptions, the main surviving shrine consists of a circular cell. It
overlooks the Valley and can be approached by a motorable road. A modern ceiling covers the inner

architectural styles. Akbar drew on Islamic and Hindu traditions and the result is eclectic. By Shah
Jahan's time the style had become so homogenized that it is impossible to separate the Hindu and
Muslim strands. The Diwan-I-Am (public audience hall) the beautiful Diwan-I-Khas (private audience
hall) were also added by Shah Jahan.

daula has important place in history as well as architecture. This is actually the very first tomb in
