The Timeless Beauty of the Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal – This amicable monument in white marble, arched dome, and four snowy-white pillars welcomes everyone with the vibes of love. Emperor Shah Jahan built the monument for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. 

For ages, the mausoleum has been celebrated worldwide as an eternal symbol of love and a statement of the power of the Mughal dynasty. It depicts intricate craftsmanship by some of the finest architects of their time. 

Classic Forts, Minarets, Mausoleums, and Market Streets of Old Delhi

Old Delhi is primarily famous for its bustling market streets of Chandni Chowk bazaar and the towering red walls of the Red Fort. Not to mention, the sandstone-striped mosque of Shah Jahan, Jama Masjid. All these are some of the signature monuments and markets of Mughal India. 

You can never get a feel of the city of Mughals without setting foot in Old Delhi. Shop souvenirs from Delhi bazaars. Climb up the minarets. Ride an autorickshaw to Humayun’s tomb. Wander through the serene and magnificent Sunder Nursery gardens.

The Splendid Fatehpur Sikri

The imperial city of Fatehpur Sikri was an emblem of the glory of emperor Akbar. The mosques, grand meeting chambers, and filigree palaces were crafted precisely by ingenious stonemasons and skilful architects.  

The entire city was abandoned to the wind after 14 years because of the acute scarcity of water. However, Fatehpur Sikri still stands in all its glory with its time-sundered magnificent sandstone walls, intricately carved windows, grand entrances, and swoon-inducing ambience. 

Itmad-Ud-Daulah Mausoleum in Agra

One of the often-overlooked near-perfect grand Mughal tombs is the Itmad-Ud-Daulah mausoleum in Agra. Constructed by the same token as the Taj Mahal, this Islamic mausoleum is a splendid marvel in white marble. The mausoleum is dedicated to the grandfather of Queen Mumtaz Mahal, Mirza Ghiyas Beg. 

Unlike the extravagant Taj Mahal, this Mughal monument is subtle and sophisticated. Its beautiful minarets have graceful corners and spellbinding craftsmanship. The walls have pietra dura inlays and carefully hand-chiselled semi-precious gemstones that reveal a garden of heaven. 

Elegant Mughal Gardens in Srinagar

The craftsmanship of the Mughal architects is equally reflected in the elegant well-planned Mughal gardens. The Mughal gardens in Srinagar represent a celestial perfection with refreshing fountains, trickling water features, elegant tree arcades, perfumed floral beds, and filigree pavilions.

The graceful gardens of Srinagar, including the immaculate Nishant Bagh and marvellous Shalimar Bagh feature extensively-spread arcades of chinar trees. Their reflection in the trickling streams and calm pools creates a charismatic ambience that is hard to escape. A mere visit to these gardens is enough to rejuvenate a tired soul.
