A world heritage monument

This monument is thought to have taken inspiration from Gur-e Amir's tomb, the mausoleum of Timur (Humayun's ancestor) in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, ca 1405 AD., this monument is much more decorated & attractive.
This monument also inspired the design of TAJ MAHAL & similarity is striking.
