Side by side in death and memory
Qutb Shahi Tombs, Golkunda, Telangana - India
Although it would be more romantic to have here a husband and wife, these are the twin mausoleums of the two favourite hakims (physicians) of Sultan Abdullah — Nizamuddin Ahmed Gilani and Abdul Jabbar Gilani — which were built in 1651.
See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qutb_Shahi_tombs for more details.
Many thanks to Manfred Sommer (www.flickr.com/photos/asienman) and his spectacular Flickr account, which enabled me to ascertain the identification of the tombs.
