Landmark

Complex in Sheikhupura, Pakistan

Hiran Minar is an early 17th-century Mughal-era complex in Sheikhupura, in the Pakistani province of Punjab. It was built at the site of a game reserve in memory of Mughal Emperor Jahangir's beloved pet antelope, Mansraj. The emperor is remembered for his fondness of nature, and the complex embodies the Mughal relationship between humans, pets and hunting.
