This beautiful garden tomb was built in the memory of the powerful prime minister of the weak Mughal Emperor Muhammad Shah.It was built by Safdarjung's son Nawab Shuja-ud-Daulah of Awadh in 1753-54.This is probably the only monument of any consequence built after the reign of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb and is known as the "Last flicker in the lamp of Mughal architectue"Although it is not on the regular tourist map it is well worth a visit.

Wat Phrayortkeo is a temple situated in the Fairfield area (Endensor Park) in Sydney in NSW. It is a Buddhist temple set up by the Lao community who have escaped the Communist take-over since 1975. This temple was built for Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike. It is a place where many Laotians come together to worship, to perform rituals and ceremonies and to celebrate different festivals. Most of all, it is a place to seek refuge in the Triple Gem – Taking refuge in the Buddha, the Dhamma (the Teachings of the Buddha) and the Sangha (the community of monks). Many seek a path out of suffering and they urge for an inner peace and solitude.
A bit of a recon trip looking for landmarks of significance in the local area. I found this great structure at Endensor Park.
