India, April 3 -- The historic town of Khuldabad witnessed a surge of visitors at the tomb of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb following the conclusion of Ramzan. As Eid festivities ended, thousands of tourists gathered at the burial site on Tuesday and Wednesday, paying homage to the Mughal ruler. Till last week, the crowd at the site had seen a drastic dip from usual numbers.

According to police, the tomb saw long queues of visitors, many carrying flowers and prayer mats.

Local police and shrine caretakers managed the crowd as the influx of tourists continued throughout the day. Vendors outside the grave sold flowers, floral garlands, perfumes, and attars.
