Sabz Burj Gets A New Lease Of Life In Delhi

03 Dec 2021 CW Team

Following a four-year conservation effort, the monument, which is one of the earliest Mughal-era structures, has been given a new lease on life. The domed mausoleum sits to the west of Humayun's Tomb and serves as an entrance to the world heritage site. It is located at the bustling crossroads of two major arterial routes, Mathura Road and Lodhi Road.

There is no record of who built the tomb or for whom it was created, despite the fact that it is claimed to have been built in the 1530s. It is double-domed, like Humayun's Tomb, and exhibits Timurid architectural style, which is associated with Central Asia.

The tomb's exterior dome, which is dotted with glazed tiles and features unusual geometric and interlacing patterns in various colours, is a noteworthy feature of the neighborhood's skyline.

The tomb is mostly covered with turquoise blue tiles, as the term "sabz" signifies "green." Green tiles, on the other hand, make up the lotus finial above the dome and the neck. In certain places, the incised plasterwork has a tinge of green colour. According to experts, the monument's name may have come from local tradition.

In the early twentieth century, the monument served as a police station. The painted interiors were plastered over at this time, resulting in the loss of most of the façade design, which was restored with layers of cement. Much of the tile work on the dome had fallen away by the 1980s, and it was re-tiled with contemporary tiles set in cement mortar.

The team did not restore any lost pieces of the ceiling, despite the ceiling's enormous value.
