History and culture of Sultan Wais Tomb

Architecture of Sultan Wais Tomb

The tomb of Wais Gharani is a 6 meters octagonal tower which each side is 2 meters inside and 3 meters outside. The main entrance opens from the east and has 6 arches at the top and a skylight at the top. Embedded in the south wall is the altar which is shaped like a tomb, the only decoration of which is a Muqarnas design on top of the fortress, with no other decoration. In the southern part of the tomb in the north to south direction, two halls are built in parallel and joined by a narrow corridor to the building of the tomb. The only materials used for the carving of the building and its dome are the only carcass stones that have not been even cut.

Adding to the importance of architecture, besides the art of architecture, is the problem of transporting water from the deep valleys down to the top of the mountain, implying true love and faith.
