Neela Gumbad
Lahore, Punjab

Neela Gumbad, the 'Blue Dome', is a seventeenth-century Sufi shrine near Anarkali Bazaar in Lahore. It is the tomb of Abdul Razzak Makki, a saint of the Suhrawardi order, raised by his disciples after his death, most likely in 1673–74. Its blue-tiled dome later gave its name to the whole surrounding area.
