She died in 1295 and was buried quite near to Mai Totla (one of Multan’s three pre-Islamic deities) once stood. The tomb comprised of a porch, entrance hall and rear rectangular chamber where the grave is located. The front portico was constructed with wood. The tomb is decorated externally with blue and white tiles, placing it firmly within the design tradition of Multan’s ‘flat roof’ tombs such as that of Shah Yousuf Gardez. The east façade, the front portico, is decorated with a set of triple wooden arches resting upon double columns, providing access to a deep portico that shelters a number of graves. Deeper into the building sits two rooms: a square tomb chamber for Bibi Pak Daman on the north and an antechamber to the south which is filled with the graves of various family members. Two small kiosks over the roof enlivens the front facade. The tomb stands at the center of a larger walled compound that includes an unusual domed gatehouse on the northeast corner. Tomb is situated at the graveyard named after her as Bibi Pak Mai Graveyard. It is situated near the old City Railway Station, Multan. In old times, there was a palace and a garden of Hazrat Bahauddin Zakariya at this place. There is a fountain known as Bibi Pak Daman tomb. Follow us on: Facebook:   / ​.  .
