What the attribution means
Architectural or civilisational site. A maqam does not by itself prove a burial. Every card and page therefore states its historical classification, separating documentary history from living devotional tradition.

Visitor etiquette
Modest dress is expected. Respect prayer times and the directions of site custodians; ask before photographing worshippers or visitors.
