Tomb : Noor Jahan
Location : Near Jahangir Tomb

Profile 

Empress Noor Jahan lies buried in a tomb not far from that of her husband,Jahangir. Once part of the Jahangiri cluster, the estate was bifurcated when the railway line was laid. To reach it today, you will need to travel west along the road that runs past Jahangiri Serai and the tomb of Asaf Khan. This road leads to a recently constructed underpass, traveling through which you will arrive at grade. However, instead of proceeding towards G.T. Road you should take the turning to the left, which will lead you to your destination. Once Noor Jahan's chahar bagh had adjoined that of Asaf Khan's, but today Noor Jahan's tomb is situated across the railway line, to the southwest of the tombs of her brother and husband.
