The Morning Standard
|July 25, 2024
THE Humayun World Heritage Site Museum, set to be inaugurated on July 29, brings to life the 700 years of pluralistic cultural traditions of the ancient city's historic neighbourhoodsNizamuddin, named after 13th century Sufi saint Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya.
With the help of 3-D illustrations, immersive screens, replicas of Mughal era architecture and rare artefacts, the museum records the life of emperor Humayun and the profound connections which the Mughals shared with the 'sacred Sufi landscape' of the city.
The principal gallery titled 'Where the Emperor Rests' depicts the architecture of Humayun's mausoleum and his personality, conveyed through stories of his travels, administration, his readings, studies in astrology and the arts, and his patronage to architecture.
