Tomb of Jani Khan

The Tomb of Jani Khan is a Mughal tomb in Baghbanpura featuring a pyramidal dome with intricate patterns on its exterior. Three unmarked graves lie inside within the stone structure of the building.

The tomb was built during the Mughal period and serves as the burial place of Jani Khan, the father-in-law of Moin-ul-Mulk. Moin-ul-Mulk served as governor until 1778 and held significant regional influence during that era.

The interior walls display traditional Mughal frescoes with geometric patterns that reflect the artistic methods of South Asian architecture. Visitors can observe these crafted details directly while moving through the spaces.

The site is located in the southwestern area of Baghbanpura and is best reached from central parts of the neighborhood. A visit during daylight hours works well since the lighting helps you see the frescoes and patterns clearly.

Local people call the structure Neela Burj, meaning Blue Tower, linking it to regional stories and traditions passed down in the community. This name reflects how residents have connected the building to their own narratives over time.
