Intricately designed interior featuring elaborate Islamic architecture. The walls and domed ceiling are adorned with detailed geometrical patterns and Arabic calligraphy in blue and gold. The use of muqarnas, a form of ornamented vaulting, adds depth and texture to the arches. The interplay of light highlights the rich textures and colors, reflecting the craftsmanship. The decor includes repeating floral and arabesque motifs, characteristic of Persian influence, enhancing the mausoleum's grandeur. The window grills contribute to the serene ambiance.
