Tomb of Hasan Shah Sur in Sasaram, Bihar

While Sher Shah Suri’s tomb is well documented the tomb of his father Hassan Khan Sur in Sasaram lies neglected and uncared for at a short distance

The material used is mainly grey sandstone tomb was it designed by the architect Aliwal Khan and built between 1540 and 1545.

Since Sher Shah’s tomb is set amidst a water body it becomes paani wala rauza and this in a garden, Hasan Shah’s tomb is called Sookha Rauza.
In a very bad state.
No guards or tickets so it’s the local add for all
Filthy approach
