Looking more Bulgarian than Kashmiri, the multi-domed 15th-century brick tomb of King Zeinalabdin’s mum was built on the plinth of a much older former Buddhist temple. It’s within an ancient graveyard hidden in Gadu Bazaar's maze of copperware, spice and cloth vendors’ shops. A number of graves were washed away during the 2014 floods but work is underway to restore the compound. To view the interior, you will need to find the caretaker; ask at the shops in front of the cemetery.
The tomb’s domes form part of the classic view of Old Town Srinagar as viewed looking north from the new Zaina Kadal (bridge), with the city’s oldest wooden bridge as foreground.
