Tomb and Mosque
Both tomb and mosque stand on a wide plinth. The mosque facing east towards the tomb has a simple facade with five unequal arches, high corner minarets, and a hemispherical dome. An incomplete parapet shows that the tomb was left unfinished. A large half-octagonal bay projects from the west wall of the Gol Gumbaz, as seen here.
