Nizam Ud Din Shrine Delhi

This is the tomb of the famous sufi saint, Nizam-ud-din Auliya.

Built on the way from Humayun's tomb, the premise of the shrine is a tank, which is surrounded by many other tombs.

It is said that there was an argument between the rulers of Tughlakabad and the saint over building this tank.

The saint had said that the city of Tughlakabad will never prosper and so did it happen.

The tomb has been through several renovations ever since it was built. The present mausoleum dates back to 1562.


The complex of the shrine includes several other tombs, including that of the noted poet Mirza Ghalib (1786-1869),Amir Khusru and the grave of Jahanara, the daughter of Shah Jahan.

If you happen to be there at around sunset on Thursdays, don't miss out the extravagant performance of qawwali singers that takes place after the evening prayers.

Location: West of Mathura Road
