View of Akbar's Tomb, as seen from the main gateway. The Tomb is an ornate, multi-story building with multiple chattris, or decorative domed pavilions, and faces a garden and a walkway that runs between itself and the main gateway. An empty, water tank is visible in the middle of the walkway. Another building with a large iwan, or a three-sided vaulted hall, can be seen on the center left area of the image.
