The Gumbaz of Rasul Shahis
To the west of the village Bhogiwal, and north-east of Chilla Shah badr
Diwan, is a dome supported by a building of octagonal form. The
dome itself now looks black with age, but above the arches the glazed
pottery work still exists. The dome stood originally on a raised
platform of which traces can be still seen. Beneath this platform
is an underground chamber where were interred the remains of the personage
in whose honor the edifice is raised. His name cannot be ascertained,
but the dome is called the Rasul Shahyum ka Maqbara, because of the followers
of that sect having located themselves there during the time of the Sikhs. |
