About the Event
This tomb was built as a tribute to the Iranian saint Sheikh Chilli or Sheikh Chehli. He came down to Thanesar in the 16th century and is believed to be the spiritual teacher of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan's son, Darak Shikoh. The tomb pays a fitting homage to the saint with Persian-styled architecture, a marble courtyard, arched gateways and a sprawling garden. Walking along the tomb feels like you're walking in a city in the clouds, with beautiful, out-of-this-world vibes! Book tickets now.
- The main tomb, and Sheikh Chilli's wife's tomb made of red sandstone

- For folks going by local train, get down at Tilak Bridge or at Delhi Station if you're coming from another city.
