Nur Jahan, born Mehr-un-Nissa, was the daughter of Persian immigrants Asmat Begam and Mirza Ghiyas Beg. She became the wife of the Emperor Jahangir and is described as the most powerful Mughal Empress.
The Tomb of Nur Jahan is located in Shahdara Bagh, across the River Ravi from Lahore, Pakistan. It sits within an ensemble of Mughal monuments that also includes the Tomb of Jahangir, the Tomb of Asif Khan, and the Akbari Sarai.
The tomb cost three lakhs of rupees to build and took four years to complete. Much of the mausoleum was most probably constructed during Nur Jahan's own lifetime.
The marble and ornamental stones were plundered during the Sikh Empire era in the 18th century when the army of Ranjit Singh occupied Lahore. Much of the material was used to decorate the Golden Temple in Amritsar.
An epitaph on her tomb reads: "On the grave of this poor stranger, let there be neither lamp nor rose. Let neither butterfly's wing burn nor nightingale sing."
The tomb was built in the takhtgah style, raised on a podium that serves as the takht, or throne. It is square, measuring 124 feet on each side and 19.6 feet high, with seven vaulted arches on the exterior and red sandstone cladding.
