Tomb of Khan Jahan stands on a high artificial mound, as mainly known as the Dargah complex of Khan Jahan. The complex consists of the square tomb building of Khan Jahan himself; a case of Muhammad Tahir, his diwan; a single-domed mosque and the so-called kitchen. It measures as 13.7 meters height and 9.1 meters width. The four exterior angles of the building are maintained with solid circular towers. There are four walls which have a thickness of 2.4 meter, have stone casings up to the height of about 0.9 meter for preventing the building from ground moisture. The ground moisture is common in the humid climate of south Bengal. It is located on the northern bank of the so-called Thakur dighi and is surrounded by an outer wall of 67.1 meter from east to west and 64.7 meter from north to south.
It was a rectangular structure of 12.2m by 8.5m with circular towers on the exterior angles. What the building was actually intended for, is unknown. A local tradition relates that in the last years of his life Khan Jahan dwelt in the building, where he now buried, and used the adjacent building as his kitchen. About a century ago, the building was known to have been used for the same purpose by two Faqirs, who then looked after the mosque and the tomb.

কথিত ঠাকুরদীঘির উত্তর তীরে খান জাহানের দরগা অবস্থিত। এই দরগাটি পূর্ব থেকে পশ্চিমে ৬৭.১ মিটার এবং উত্তর থেকে দক্ষিনে ৬৪.৭ মিটার দীর্ঘ দেয়াল দিয়ে ঘেরা। খান জাহানের দরগা কমপ্লেক্সটি উঁচু মাটির ঢিবির উপর অবস্থিত। এই কমপ্লেক্সে অবস্থিত একটি বর্গক্ষেত্র আকারের ভবনে খান জাহানের সমাধি, তাঁর দেওয়ান মুহাম্মাদ তাহিরের সমাধি, একটি এক গম্বুজবিশিষ্ট মসজিদ এবং একটি কথিত রান্নাঘর রয়েছে। খান জাহানের সমাধিটির প্রতিটি দিকের মাপ বাইরে থেকে ১৩.৭ মিটার এবং ভেতর থেকে ৯.১ মিটার। ইট দিয়ে নির্মিত এই ভবনটি দরগা কমপ্লেক্সের প্রাণকেন্দ্র। ভবনটির চার কোণায় চারটি গোলাকার টাওয়ার রয়েছে। এছাড়া ভবনটির চার দেয়ালের প্রতিটির পুরুত্ব ২.৪ মিটার এবং মাটির আদ্রতা থেকে রক্ষা করতে দেয়ালের ০.৯ মিটার উচ্চতা পর্যন্ত পাথরের আবরন ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে। দক্ষিনবঙ্গের আদ্র আবহাওয়ায় মাটির আদ্রতা একটি সাধারণ ব্যাপার।
কি উদ্দেশ্যে ভবনটি নির্মিত হয়েছিল সেটি জানা যায়নি। স্থানীয়দের কাছ থেকে জানা যায় জীবনের শেষ সময়ে খান জাহান আলী এই ভবনে বাস করতেন এবং পাশের ভবনটিকে রান্নাঘর হিসেবে ব্যবহার করতেন। মৃত্যুর পর খান জাহান আলীকে এই ভবনেই সমাহিত করা হয়। জানা যায় প্রায় শত বছর পূর্বে মসজিদ এবং দরগার দেখাশোনার কাজে নিয়োজিত দুজন ফকির একই উদ্দেশ্যে এই ভবনটিকে ব্যবহার করতেন।

The Shrine of three leaders (তিন নেতার মাজার) is a significant architectural monument located at Shahbag, Dhaka in Bangladesh. The monument hosts the graves of three pre-liberation Bengali politicians in the 20th century- A.K. Fazlul Huq (1873–1962), Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy (1892–1963) and Khwaja Nazimuddin (1894–1964). All three men served as the Prime Minister of Bengal in British India. The monument was designed by architect Masood Ahmed and S.A. Zahiruddin and was established in the year 1963. The style of architecture of the monuments is an interpretation of Islamic Arcs.
The Shrine of three leaders was established in the year 1963. It was built by architects Masood Ahmed and S.A. Zahiruddin. The Shrine of three leaders consists of a hyperbolic paraboloid structure that is erected over the three graves of the three political leaders. The three political leaders being A.K. Fazlul Huq, Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy and Khawaja Nazimuddin. The three leaders had died in separate dates but were all buried in the same area as all three of them had contributed significantly to East Pakistan and were all involved politically.
A.K. Fazlul Huq was a very well-known politician who was famous for his leadership qualities. One of his most important contributions was being involved with the Bengali Language Movement. Fazlul Huq along with Huseyn Suhrawardy had engaged in many political acts such as forming the United Front in the 1954 elections, with which they had gained victory by winning the most seats. Huseyn Suhrawardy and Fazlul Huq had also worked together to control the government of East Pakistan.
However, it was rumored that Suhrawardy and Fazlul Huq had rivalry between them which had caused Fazul Huq to step down from politics. Suhrawardy was known to be the founder of the Bangladesh Awami League. He was also known to contribute significantly to the growth and development of East Pakistan. Suhrawardy became the Prime Minister of Pakistan in 1956 but was forced to resign in 1957. He was completely banned from politics by Ayub Khan (President of Pakistan). Khawaja Nazimuddin was the Prime Minister of Pakistan from 1951 to 1953.
Suhrawardy had served as the Minister of Labor and also the Minister of Civil Supplies under Khawaja Nazimuddin. At that time, Pakistan was considered to be moving in a forward direction in terms of turning into a republic but it soon failed as Nazimuddin had died shortly after in the year 1963. Even with all these achievements, it was rumored that these three political leaders had a rivalry with each other in terms of success. However, despite their rivalry, three of the political leaders were buried under the same roof of the Shrine of the three leaders.
In the present day, the Shrine is sometimes open to the public. In certain events such as the death anniversary of either A.K. Fazlul Huq, Huseyn Suhrawardy or Khawaja Nazimuddin, special prayer ceremonies are taken place in the site of the Shrine and people bring in flowers to commemorate.
