Bade Khan Ka Gumbad - Tourist attraction in New Delhi - South, India

Bade Khan ka Gumbad is a Lodi era tomb, under ASI and situated in narrow lanes of South Extension 1, C block. You can reach there by Pink line Metro, public transport or by car. Peaceful park is there. You will see children playing there. No entry fee.

Bade khan ka Gumbad: Dating back to the 16th century, the tombs exhibit remarkable intricacy. Bade Khan's tomb has ornate carvings on the front, while the center is encircled by three tiers of niches. Each row's central niche is larger, evoking the classic Lodhi-era style, crowned by chhatris atop octagonal turrets at the corners. The interiors, once finely detailed, now bear signs of wear.

Disappointed by the way they're preserving the campus. There were kids riding their bicycles on the lawn and some were using the tomb walls to play balls. Also a corner of the campus was used as a trash dump. There are two tombs in the campus, one for Bade Khan and one for Chotte Khan. There is no entry and if you visit before 5, you can enter and visit inside the tombs as well.

The monument is beautifully architect. Both the monuments bade khan tomb and chote khan tomb are adjacent to each other. There is no fee for entry. People walking around the monuments daily.

The Bade Khan Tomb is the larger among the pair of two the other being Chhote Khan Tomb but does not appear on the maps. The two tombs are inside the same campus and the difference is in the cap of the tomb one of them having a small metal pole. I visited here last winter and found that access was limited and by permission from the security due to the prevailing lock down. There is accessible parking but no accessible entrance. Accessibility Features: No=Ramp access. No=A wheelchair-accessible Entrance. Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Restroom/Toilet. Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Seating. Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Parking.

There are many gumbads in Delhi that should be demolished as soon as possible and be replaced by the new attractive public places to visit.. Rather than a couple spots..

This is a beautiful and peaceful place in the noise and madness of Delhi

No restroom but still favorite place for students
