The Tomb of Anarkali (Urdu: مقبرۂ انارکلی) is an octagonal 16th century Mughal monument in Lahore, capital of the Pakistani province of Punjab.

[3] The tomb was said to be built by the Mughal Emperor Jehangir for his love, named in contemporary travel accounts as Anarkali, who, as per legend, was suspected by Emperor Akbar to have relations with Jehangir, at the time known as Prince Saleem.

[3] There is no other historic proof of Anarakali's existence than that of Jahangir's contemporary western traveler's accounts which could not be independently confirmed; the rest is some scholarly speculated hypothesis and/ or subsequent literary fictionalization of her character which often appears in movies, books and fictionalized versions of history.

[1] The tomb was then converted during the British Raj into clerical offices in 1847 before being turned into the Anglican St. James Church in 1851, and later regarded as Lahore's "Protestant Cathedral.

[1] The large arches in the sides of the building were once open in typical Mughal fashion, but were blocked off by the British.
