Bibi ka Maqbara
Aurangzeb's wife Rabiya Durrani died several years before him. She was intially burried in a very ordinary grave, like his own grave . Later Aurangzeb's son Shahzada Ahmad Shah, felt that his mother deserved a better resting place. He built the Bibi ka Maqbara, which is strikingly similar to the Taj Mahal, albeit smaller and built out of a combination of marble and white plaster. It can almost be called poor man's Taj Mahal!This remarkable monument is within the city limits of Aruangabad.
