Photogenic Service Lane in front of the tomb!Although there were Delhi police’s barricades but they allowed us to take pictures( we went there at 1:30am and stayed for 30mins).You might also get to see a lot of nice cars(Lamborghini, Porsche, etc.)

Architecture is similar to Humayuns tomb but less crowded, more peaceful and more beautiful ❤️. Best if you visit the monument in morning or late evening, feeling the cool breeze and listen to music of nature. Its a beautiful experience. The entrance of this tomb is just beautiful.

Telling tale of bygone era, Safdarjung Tomb is one of the last of grand Mughal Tombs. It is built on the lines of Humayuns Tomb albeit on a much smaller scale.The tomb is located in beautifully manicured and maintained garden. The area isnt large so 1hr is more than enough to cover the whole area.When entering the tomb youll be enamoured by the geometric designs on the roof of the tomb and the general architecture of those times.However, Humayuns tomb offers better treat to the eyes.It has small parking space, ticket charges are nominal and can be booked by scanning QR code (online payment) present at the entrance. Washrooms and drinking water facilities is available in compound.It is generally not crowded, not many know about it, so it is perfect to spend some time in solace away from the noise of the city.Do prefer favourable weather to visit as summers in Delhi can be punishing.Its few minutes walk from Jor Bagh metro station. Also, famous Lodhi Gardens isnt far away from Safdarjung tomb, you can visit it too.

Beautiful place.Safdarjung tomb ,jorbagh is also known as last flicker in lamp of mughal architecture .Located near jorbagh metro station ( around 150 m) took 8 minutes to reach tomb from metro station.Entry ticket Rs 25 per person.Camera and bags allowed.For professional photography and shooting no permission required.Have lush green garden .You can spend quality time with your friends or family.Less public and soothing environment.Near to it LODHI GARDEN ( around 50 m away ) infront of entrance gate. You can also visit there ( free entry) .

Nice place for short visit as nothing much to see no museum no presence of anything much to read about tomb apart from few stone encarved around but it looks beautiful with light onn i dont highly recommend it for tourist but can visit if need rest or sit around gazing beauty of garden and architect . Ticket prize are cheap 25 / person (Indian) . Monument lighting start from 7 PM dont have to pay anything extra over your ticket to see that dont get dupe over that. One Guard is found being rude without any reason but not every one, one is found was quite friendly who took pictures for us .

A beautiful but (thankfully) little-known gem of Delhi’s cultural heritage. Come here for an evening stroll in the spring and enjoy the relics which have been commendably restored by the ASI. If possible, stay back for a while and watch the tomb in all its glory at night when it is lighted and the fountains are on. A wonderful place situated right in the heart of bustling South Delhi.

Review №45

Relatively quiet place with very less visitors coming in on daily basis. (Rs. 25 per person (Apr21))The guards however create a bit of trouble if you have a camera. Otherwise its a good place to visit specially for the heritage lovers as you get plenty of opportunity to get real close to different parts of the architecture.

Review №47

This garden tomb made of marble and sandstone for the Wazir or the Prime Minister of the Mughal dynasty, Safdarjung, is touted to be the last such mausoleum, depicting the Mughal architectural style. The compound of Safdarjung tomb houses a three-dome mosque, an underground chamber with the graves of Safdarjung and his wife, and the pavilions where the Archaeological Survey of India now has an office and a library. The ASI has recently installed 213 led lights at the tomb as part of its architectural illumination project and the tomb is lit up every day from 7:30 PM to 11 PM.

This is an hidden gem in delhi. This isnt as famous as other tombs but still the architect and the feeling this historical place provide is unmatchable. Its also a famous picnic spot where people can eat inside the parks. Its well maintained and could easily be reached by metro and buses. Near this place is a park called lodhi garden which is the most beautiful park of whole of delhi for me. I have been to both the places many times and just love the feeling I get when I stay beneath this bid red beautiful tomb. I totally recommend this place to others and Im going to upload few photos to show the beauty of this place. Hope it will help others.

Review №61

Safdarjung tomb, the last monumental tomb garden of the Mughals, was planned and built like an enclosed garden tomb in line with the style of the Humayun tomb. It is a sandstone and marble mausoleum. The monument has an ambience of spaciousness and an imposing presence with its domed and arched red brown and white coloured structures.The best time to visit Safdarjung tomb in Delhi is during the cool, dry season. You can choose to go sightseeing anytime between November and March. During this period, the weather in Delhi remains pleasant. The temperature ranges from 20 to 25 degrees. We suggest you wear light clothes. Make sure to visit the monument early in the morning to avoid the evening rush.Safdarjung tomb timings: 7 AM – 5 PMSafdarjung tomb entry fee: INR 15/- for Indians, INR 200/- for adultsPhotography charges: Free (video shoot at INR 25/-)Famous for: Walking tours, photography, sightseeing, and picnickingVisit duration: 1-2 hours

Review №67

This tomb is quite the surprise once you enter through its gates. From the road, it looks like another remnant of Delhis rich heritage but the campus presents a beautiful, symmetric tomb and a sprawling garden. We enjoyed a peaceful visit. Yes, there is parking (enter the premise from the road). Currently, in-person ticketing is not available. You can buy entry tickets online or at the spot once you scan the QR code. Note that the guards will not let you enter without the tickets seen on your phone (they need to scan it). ₹20-25 per person (local), 200ish for international tourists. Masks are required and enforced. Personal photography is permitted and free but tripods are not allowed (need permission from ASI). Need permission for commercial photography/videography. I request all visitors to respect the rules, be conscientious, maintain the cleanliness and not vandalize the monument

I would like to call this place a paradise for all the photography lovers out there. There is a lot to explore at this place, Safdarjung tomb is a beautiful monument, starting from the entrance to inside the monument, this place will not fail to amaze you. Nearest metro station to this place is Jor bagh (walking distance). Major advantage is that there are not many people at this place so you can enjoy a peaceful visit to this place

Tomb of SafdarjungSafdarjungs Tomb is a sandstone and marble mausoleum in Delhi, India. It was built in 1754 in the late Mughal Empire style for Nawab Safdarjung. The monument has an ambience of spaciousness and an imposing presence with its domed and arched red brown and white coloured structures. Safdarjung, Nawab of Oudh, was made prime minister of the Mughal Empire (Wazir ul-Mamlak-i-Hindustan) when Ahmed Shah Bahadur ascended the throne in 1748.

Safdarjungs Tomb is the last enclosed garden tomb in Delhi in the tradition of Humayuns Tomb, though it if far less grand in scale. It was built in 1753- 54 as mausoleum of Safdarjung, the viceroy of Awadh under the Mughal Emperor, Mohammed Shah.Theres a 20 rupees entry ticket which has to be purchased on phone via a QR code. If youre going in a group, best to book all tickets on one device. Guards might ask for your ID card as well.If youre going here for a picnic the guards may put up a mild objection but are otherwise chill.
