Summary[edit]

Description

Delhi, Lodi Gardens, Tomb of Sikandar Lodi

Unlike other tombs of the Lodi period, which are based upon a square plan, the Tomb of Sikandar Lodi (1489-1517) is a revival of the earlier Sayyid type, with its octagonal plan, deep veranda and tall arches. The tomb stands at the center of an enclosed precinct entered from a monumental portal facing south. It is topped with a double dome without the more typical roof kiosks (chhatris).
