If you want to visit the Tomb of Ali Mardan Khan then you to go towards the Muhalpura. A small passage closed off by gates will take you straight to the tomb. The Tomb is open for public and visitor on Thursdays.
The passage way was built later by the railway authority to keep people from respassing on the rail grounds.
Through this narrow walkway you will get to see this tomb which is in ruins and shambles but is said to be one of the finest tomb of Mughal Era. The tomb is very huge on an octagonal structure which is common mosque and tomb structure in Muslim World.
This a beautiful building and is said to have many embellisment and floral designs. Now the brick are visible with very few pattern remaining on the tomb wall.
The tomb is surrounded by Mughal style garden and is said it have gates on each sides. Now the pannels and small dome structure are lost and the gardens is also gone. The building needs serious attention and care.
