[1] The tomb is located in the Alam Ganj neighbourhood of the Dharampura municipality, approximately 3 kilometres west of Lahore's Walled City.

[6] The entire tomb is built upon a raised square plinth made of white marble that measures 54 feet on each edge.

[5] The quadrangle is enclosed by high walls containing numerous small cells that form a cloister around the tomb on the southern and eastern side of the complex that were used by dervishes and pilgrims.

[6] A pink sandstone gateway leads to the shrine, with a couplet in Persian over the entrance reading: Mian Mir, the title page of devotees, the earth of whose door is as luminous as the Philosopher's stone, took his way to the eternal city when he was weary of this abode of sorrow.

The shrine is located immediately west of the tomb of Nadira Begum, wife of the Mughal prince Dara Shikoh.
