Vilayati Bagh was built by Ghazi-ud-din Haider
(b. c. 1769 – d. 19 October 1827) was the last[1] nawab wazir of Oudh from 11 July 1814 to 19 October 1818[2] and first[1] King of Oudh from 19 October 1818 to 19 October 1827, for an European of his on the right bank of the River Gomti not far from the Dilkusha Palace.
The Archaeological Survey of India has been working on its preservation after decades of neglect.
Three European graves within its precincts have been repaired but remain nameless!

| The two little pyramids put on one grave are, perhaps, remnants of the original grave or wall that surrounded it! |
