Detailed explanation-1: -The Bibi Ka Maqbara (English: “Tomb of the Lady") is a tomb located in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. It was commissioned in 1660 by the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in the memory of his wife Dilras Banu Begum (posthumously known as Rabia-ud-Daurani) and is considered to be a symbol of Aurangzeb’s ‘conjugal fidelity’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bibi Ka Maqbara is among the largest monuments built by Aurangzeb who was not fond of the idea of constructing monuments. As a result, there are only a few structures to his credit including this mausoleum. It is believed that Aurangzeb wanted this mausoleum to be as grand as his mother’s tomb, the Taj Mahal.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mini Taj Mahal built by Emperor Aurangzeb for his first wife. One of the most famous monuments in Aurangabad. The monument is dedicated to Dilras Banu Begum who was the 1st wife of Aurangzeb. It is almost an exact replica of Taj Mahal.
