MEDIEVAL INDIA
Among the medieval Indian rulers, the royal tombs of Babur, Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, and Shah Jahan, the builder of the Taj Mahal, reflect the splendor and architectural style of their time. Also, the modest tomb of Aurangzeb and, among the Afghan rulers, the massive tomb of Sher Shah Suri, a masterpiece of Indo-Islamic architecture.
