This tomb was build for Humayun by his first wife, Bega Begum. Construction started in 1565, 9 years after his death. It was completed in 1572. Begum was so grieved over her husband's death she dedicated her life to building the most magnificent mausoleum in the Empire! Wow....I would totally do that for my husband if I had the means, but not if he had other wives - I would have to be his one and only....just sayin'.

Project 365
Am I insane? Have I lost my mind? After thinking long and hard about it (OK, really I only thought about it for about 12 hours) I just committed to doing a photo a day for a year - a 365 'they' call it. This is going to be SUPER HARD for me. Not the photo part, but the editing part. I mean you guys KNOW how far behind I am. A photo a day - that doesn't sound like much, but in reality, who are we kidding? Anyway I'm going to TRY to post each day, but there will be times I might be MIA for a couple of days, just bear with me and I will catch up. Archives
