Nuh is situated about 45 km south of Gurgaon on the Delhi-Alwar Road and is a town in Mewat district in the state of Haryana. The town assumed importance in the time of Bahadur Singh of Ghasera because of the trade in Salt which was manufactured in the neighbouring villages.
To the west of the town is a fine masonry tank of red sandstone with a chhatri possibly connected with the name of Chuhi Mal, adorned with beautiful floral designs. The tomb of Sheikh Musa, an exemplary structure combining the Muslim and Rajput forms of architecture, is at a distance of about 2 and a half kilometres from town. It is famous for its shaking minarets. The shaking of the minarets can be felt distinctly.
If you’re keen to go a bit further around the town of Nuh, make it a point to go the two monuments in village Kotla about 6.5 KM south of the town of Nuh. These are the mosque and the tomb of Bahadur Khan Nahir. In these buildings, red sandstone and Grey quartzite are skilfully combined in a well-built structure. Over the ruined gateway is an inscription giving the date of its building as A.D. 1392-1400.
Nuh is accessible by road from Gurgaon, Sohna, Pataudi, New Delhi, Faridabad and Alwar.
