Bibi Ka Maqbara
Fact & Figures
Built in : 1678
Built by : Prince Azam Shah
Location : Aurangabad.
Bibi Ka MakbaraBibi Ka Maqbara, situated 5-km from the city was built in 1678 by Aurangzeb's son Prince Azam Shah, in memory of his mother Begum Rabia Durani. It is considered as a fine piece of Mughal architecture in the Deccan region. It is also known as "The Taj of south India". This mausoleum is a replica of the famous Taj Mahal. Though the layout and surrounding of the tomb is very much similar to that of Taj but some how the architecture fails to produce the magic of Taj. When its delicacy of work etc. is compared, it falls far short of the glory of the Taj at Agra. Hence, it is considered to be a poor imitation of Taj Mahal in Agra.
