Shah Rukn-e-Alam





































I saw many visitors--males, females, kids, poor, poorer, and the poorest. And the poorest seemed to be the richest. Yes, in such places the poorest are the richest of all. Interesting, isn't it? You have got to see it to believe it. I also ran into visitors whose language I didn't understand. There were hundreds of such visitors who looked similar and spoke a language which was alien to me. These visitors were everywhere in the tomb. They were flying everywhere in the courtyard and around the tomb. Look at the pics above and you will know who I am talking about. It was a pleasure interacting with those visitors. They didn't create any problems for anyone. They didn't even ask for food or money. They got what was meant for them!Inside the tomb, I took pics of the place where Shah Rukn-e-Alam was buried. I am not sure if should call it a shrine.
