Shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar

The shrine features a large gilded dome, white marble walls, glazed tiles, and mirror decorations following Persian Islamic architectural patterns.

The mausoleum was built in 1356 under Shah Tughluq's reign to house the remains of the 13th-century Muslim Sufi saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar.

The shrine hosts dhamaal ceremonies where participants perform meditative dances accompanied by rapid drum beats according to ancient Sufi traditions.

The sanctuary welcomes thousands of visitors each Thursday, with the main entrance leading to an inner sanctum containing a silver-canopied grave.

Both Muslim and Hindu devotees gather at the shrine, where women called muridiani perform water offering rituals for spiritual blessings.
