The garden is very large and pleasant, walled in on all sides, with various seats inside. There were drawings of human figures. Over these the king Aurangzeb ordered a coat of whitewash to be applied, so that the drawings might not be seen. He said such things were prohibited by the Mahomedan religion. I obtained entrance to this garden several times to inspect the mausoleum, being anxious to see the above-named figures before Aurangzeb should order them to be covered over. - [Previous: 60.5.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.5.7) - [Next: 60.6.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.6.2) - [Up: 60.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.6.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.60.6.1) · Pramāṇa
