BackgroundNadira was the wife of Dara Shikoh, who served as the governor of Lahore in the 1640s. In 1659, Dara was fighting his brother Aurangzeb for the Mughal throne. After Dara's defeat in the Battle of Deorai, he and his wife tried to flee to Iran through the Bolan Pass, but Nadira died of dysentery and exhaustion. Though Dara's troops were depleted, he sent his remaining soldiers to carry his wife's body from the pass to Lahore, to be buried near the shrine of Mian Mir, whom both considered to be their "spiritual guide".[1][2] HistoryThe tomb is believed to have been robbed of all costly marbles and semi-precious stones during the Sikh period. During Ranjit Singh's rule "the choicest material from the structure" were robbed leaving it in a "dilapidated" state. The tomb is also a prey to "contemporary vandalism" which is evident from the gaudy graffiti on the mausoleum "with the ugly plague of wall chalking".[2] ArchitectureUnlike other Mughal tombs, which are built in gardens, this tomb does not have a dome and was built in a water tank "which was large enough to accommodate a lake". The tomb stands at the center of the tank on a raised platform .[2] The tank was "200 by 200 Mughal gaz in size".[3] Later, however the tank was converted into a Mughal garden.[4] The corners of the tank were denoted by pavilions and the tomb could be accessed through "lofty gateways" on the north and south through a masonry bridge.[2] The bridge stands on thirty arches. The central chamber is 14 feet wide and is surrounded by an ambulatory. The square tomb measures 44 feet on each side and is 32 ft 6 in tall. The first storey is 13 feet and surrounded by square headed apertures. The stairs for reaching the upper storey are located in the northeast and southeast corners. The grave is 6 ft 10 in long, 2 ft 10 in wide and 1 ft 8 in high. Quranic verses are inscribed in Nastaliq script on a marble slab on the northern face of the grave.[2] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite book|title=Theory and practice of yoga: essays in honour of Gerald James Larson |location=Leiden Boston |publisher=Brill Publishers |year=2005 |type=Print |last1=Larson |first1=Gerald J. |first2=Knut A. |last2=Jacobsen |ISBN=9789004147577 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=jPK2spNnwm4C |pages = 307, 315}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|title=Nadira Begam's Tomb|url=https://www.ualberta.ca/~rnoor/tomb_nadira_begam.html|publisher=UAL Berta|accessdate=21 March 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Lahore|url=http://www.mughalgardens.org/html/shalamar_mian.html|publisher=Mughal Gardens|accessdate=21 March 2015}} 4. ^{{cite book|author1=James L.
