Time Travel, Tomb Style

#summervacay Okay, Humayun’s Tomb? Total surprise gem! I wasn’t expecting it to be this pretty. It’s like this grand, red-and-white palace-looking place smack in the middle of Delhi. The vibes are super chill, and the symmetry? Chef’s kiss. You walk through these huge arched doorways and there’s this massive tomb surrounded by gardens that feel like something out of a Mughal fairy tale. It’s actually the resting place of Emperor Humayun, but honestly, it feels more like a royal retreat. The place is peaceful, full of birds, and perfect for slow strolls and lazy people-watching. The architecture is kinda like a warm-up for the Taj Mahal, which makes sense ‘cause this came first. Pro tip: Go early morning or late afternoon for golden lighting and less crowd. Also, wear comfy shoes there’s a lot to explore. Humayun’s Tomb is perfect if you’re into history, or just want some aesthetic spots for your photo dump. Totally worth the entry fee!
