The Etimad-ud-Daula's Tomb, Agra
Etimad-ud-Daula's Tomb (I'timad-ud-Daulah ka Maqbara) - a Mughal mausoleum in the city of Agra in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Often described as "jewel box", sometimes called the "Baby Taj", the Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah is often regarded as a draft of the Taj Mahal. The mausoleum was commissioned by Nur Jahan, the wife of Jahangir, for her father Mirza Ghiyas Beg, originally a Persian Amir in exile, who had been given the title of I'timad-ud-Daulah (pillar of the state)
