Paigah Tombs, Noble cemetery in Phisal Banda, India
The Paigah Tombs contain marble mausoleums with stone lattice screens, detailed carvings, and geometric patterns spread across two acres of land.
The necropolis originated in 1786 when Abdul Fateh Khan, a military commander and nobleman serving the Nizams of Hyderabad, was laid to rest.
The burial complex displays Indo-Islamic architecture merging French, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Mughal, Rajput, Persian, and Kakatiyan construction methods.
Located 7 kilometers from central Hyderabad, the cemetery remains open daily for visitors, with local buses and auto-rickshaws providing transportation.
The tombs feature 35 different types of limestone screens, including a terracotta lattice just one millimeter thick at the Ladli Begum memorial.
