Tomb of Baha'al-Halim

The tomb of Baha'al-Halim is a ruin complex in Uch with an octagonal shape, featuring turrets at each corner and two domes rising above. Inside, thick angled walls rise two stories and are decorated with blue and white mosaic tiles, while glazed bricks and arched windows ornament the exterior.

The shrine was built during the 15th century, showing the construction methods of that era. Major flooding in 1817 caused substantial damage to the structure, something that remains visible in how the complex appears today.

The shrine honors Baha'al-Halim and reflects the veneration that followers continue to show this Sufi saint. Visitors can sense how pilgrimage and prayer remain central to how local communities use and respect this place.

The site is located in Uch Sharif, an area with several historical monuments, and can be reached via routes from Bahawalpur. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes as the site consists of ruins with uneven ground.

The interior chambers are arranged in a circular pattern, an unusual architectural choice for that period. This hidden circular design inside contrasts with the octagonal shape visitors see from outside.
