Tomb
Chaukhandi
A closer view of the building shows that the central arched recesses are flanked by panels that include diagonal squares and arches all outlined in masonry bands carved in a variety of patterns. Some of the arched recesses in the lower story have open part-hexagonal enclosures, with elaborate crenellated parapets. A similar enclosure at the rear of the building is closed and has a spherical dome.
