Description:
Very near to the Maqbara, is the Panchakki, means a water mill. It was built in 1624 to honour the memory of a Sufi saint and the spiritual mentor of Aurangzeb, Baba Shah Musafir, whose grave lies besides. The physics of this water mill is unique which was designed to generate energy via water, brought down from a spring on a mountain, located 8 km away. The energy generated was further used to turn the large grinding stones of the flour mill which used to grind grain for the pilgrims.
