Description
Ten historic mausoleums: Taj Mahal, Humayun, Itimad-ud-Daulah, Samanids, Gur-e-Amir, Theodoric, Galla Placidia, Hamilton, Grant and Charlottenburg. An architectural selection, not an age or size ranking or political endorsement. The Galla Placidia mausoleum has a conventional name: she was buried in Rome, not in this Ravenna building. Remains from Hamilton Mausoleum were later transferred to a cemetery. Charlottenburg Mausoleum was enlarged for additional burials. Itimad-ud-Daulah is an independent historic monument, not a modern replica of the Taj Mahal. Archival photographs do not establish present condition or visitor access.
