On the north side of Lahore, the Mausoleum of Jahangir is situated in the town of Shahdara. It was built in the middle of the then Dilamiz garden (presently known as Bagh-e-Dilkusha). However, Emperor Shajhan built this tomb in his father’s memory, after the death of Jahangir who died in 1627 A.D. (1037 A.H.). The dead body of Jahangir was brought to Lahore and buried in the Garden. So, the superb edifice is presently known as Jahangir’s tomb (Maqbrara e Jahangir).
