Nizami Pavilion

The arcaded pavilion at the south end of the Mecca Masjid's courtyard is the resting place of the Nizams. Octagonal minarets positioned at the corners and the middle of the wall replicate the Mecca Masjid's minarets, on a reduced scale. Inside the pavilion are the tombs of all except the earliest Asaf Jahi rulers who were buried at Khuldabad.
