Tomb of Anarkali is situated at Civil Secretariat Lahore

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: THE TOMB OF ANARKALI, is situated at Civil Secretariat Punjab Lahore Pakistan.

For many Anarkali (real name, Sharif un Nisa aka Nadra Beghum) is a myth, she doesn't exist.

All she was just a fictional character in the Book (Anarkali) Of writer Imtiaz ali taj. The story was originally written by Indian writer Abdul Halim Sharar and he had clearly mentioned it to be a work of fiction.

Or She was a Dancer in the Court of Mughal Emperpor Akbar, and Her beauty & Elegance turned Father & Son against each other. Jahangir madly fell in love with her, & Akbar could not Tolerate such Lunatic relation between Royal & common, it was madness. Jahangir was prepared to leave His rightful Throne & State affairs just for Anarkali. Upon the notice of the affair, King Akbar caused the lady to be enclosed within a wall of his palace, where she died.

The King Jahangir, in token of his love, ordered a magnificent tomb of stone to be built in the midst of a walled four-square garden provided with a gate. The body of the tomb, the emperor willed to be wrought in work of gold

They say True love is Blind, isn't it!!! Historians are confused, the way She died, Some say Akbar #Buried her alive behind the walls, But in the Film Mughal-e-azam (1960) she escaped from the tunnel behind.

Or Anarkali was originally the name of the garden in which the tomb was situated, but with the passage of time, the tomb itself came to be named as that of Anarkali’s

OR its just a story, But Here's the Tomb, the Living Breathing Evidence that she existed in some form.

The tomb was converted into a church during British occupation and now the building serves as an archive (with a collection of old prints) within the compound of the Government Record Office.
