It was 108 degrees today, but we went out anyway to see Humayun's tomb.
Humayun's tomb is of Mughal architecture and is located in New Delhi about 20 minutes from our house. The tomb was built by Emperor Humayun's widow starting in 1562. It was built before the Taj Mahal and you will see the influences.
