Humayun's Tomb is situated at Mathura Road, Nizamuddin, New Delhi. It is a historical place made by Mirak Mirza Ghiyath chosen by Bega Begum fr Mutual Emperor Humayun in 1565AD. It is a UNESCO world heritage site. It is a very beautiful tomb surrounded with gardens all around. This tomb was commissioned by Humayun's son, Akbar. It is located close to Red Fort. The site was chosen on the banks of Yamuna river.After his death on 20 January 1556, Humayun's body was first buried in his palace in Purana Quila at Delhi. Thereafter it was taken to Sirhind, in Punjab by Khanjar Beg, because it was feared that Hindu king Hemu, who had defeated Mughal forces in Agra and Delhi in Oct. 1556 and captured Purana Quila, will damage the tomb. In 1558, it was seen by his son, the then Mughal Emperor, Akbar. Akbar subsequently visited the tomb when it was about to be completed in 1571. Akbar ordered to build this tomb.Turkish and Mughal rule in the Indian subcontinent, also introduced Central Asian and Persian styles of Islamic architecture in the region, and by the late 12th century early monuments in this style were appearing in and around Delhi, the capital of Delhi Sultanate.

North India was successive ruled foreign dynasties in the coming centuries giving rise to the Indo-Islamic architecture. Hope I helped u.. Plz mark as the BRAINLIEST answer..
