Shrine of Khalid Walid

[3] The shrine dates from the period of the medieval Delhi Sultanate,[4] and may be the earliest Muslim funerary monument in South Asia.

[1] The shrine represents the first stage of evolution of funerary monuments in southern Punjab which would later culminate with the Tomb of Shah Rukn-e-Alam in Multan.

[10] The use of wooden bands horizontally across the shrine, and use of both glazed and cut brick also represents the influence of Central Asian Seljuk architecture.

[5] The roofline is decorated with crenellations - a feature commonly employed in fortified structures such as the Rohtas Fort.

[13] The shrine is notable for its exceptional mihrab made of cut and molded brick, decorated with Kufic calligraphy,[2] capped with a hood similar to a baldachin.

The shrine features elements of military architecture, such as bastions and crenellations .
