Note to travellers:



  • The architectural beauty of the
    place makes it a must-see place
    for tourists. The serene and
    peaceful place will compel you to
    �������������������������������
    the grandeur of the bygone times.

  • �����������������������������
    intricate designs are a delight
    for photographers. Student and
    people involved in architecture
    ������������������������
    interesting and inspiring, in
    terms of design.

  • �������������������������������
    deserted and somewhat ignored.
    Although there is a family staying
    there. They are the caretakers
    of this monument. But this
    architectural wonder is now
    more than 200 years old and
    demanding a better care and
    some restoration work from our
    side.

  • You can visit these tombs on
    all days, except on Fridays. To
    visit Paigah tombs, the timings
    are from 10 am to 5 pm. There
    is no entry fee to this place,
    but the caretaker is also a very
    warm person and guides you
    around and shares some info, in
    expectation of some fees - this is
    open to your discretion.

  • The pointer on the Google maps
    is accurate, so do not be confused
    by the unassuming entrance.
    There is a small signboard too,
    that should help identify the
    place.

  • Footwear is to be left outside the
    elevated platform of the tombs,
    so if it’s mid-day when you reach
    a pair of socks should be useful in
    summers as the stones get quite
    warm.

  • You would ideally need about
    45 to 60 minutes to soak in
    this place, photographers and
    architecture students may need
    more based on their levels of
    interest.
