About Mariam's Tomb

Mariam’s tomb is the tomb of Mariam uz Zamani which means Mary of all ages, who was the mother of Jahangir. It is said that to politically take over the Rajputs Akbar married a Rajput princess named Mariam who is popularly known as Jodha Bai and allowed her to remain as a Hindu and follow all the rituals and festivals and also let her take part in the court activities (women were not allowed to do so). A lot of history about Jodha is still in shadows. What remains as an explicit reminder is her tomb. The real name of Mariam is Heer Kunwari.  This tomb was built by Jahangir in memory of his mother. It is said that she wished to be rested nearer to her husband than any of his other wives. Thus, the tomb is within one kilometer from the tomb of Akbar. This monument looks the same from front and back. If you think you have already visited a lot of graves, you should visit this to know that not all tombs are the same in Mughal Empire
