Question

What are the elements of a Mughal Chahar Bagh garden?

Answer 1

Hint: Charbagh or Chahar Bagh is a Persian and Indo-Persian four-sided home diagram dependent on the 4 bequests of Paradise referred to in the Qur'an. The quadrangular estate is separated by footpaths or flowing water into 4 smaller fragments. They are located in nations all over Western Asia and South Asia, as well as Iran and India.

Complete answer:
The Chahrbagh-e Abbasi (or Charbagh Avenue) in Isfahan, Iran, built by Shah Abbas the Great in 1596, and the home of the Taj Mahal in India are the most praised delineations of this plan. In the Charbagh at the Taj Mahal, each of the 4 parts comprises 16 flower beds. In India, the Char Bagh idea in majestic tombs is seen in Humayun's Tomb in Delhi on a colossal scale. Humayan's ancestor was the Central Asian Conqueror Babur, who prospered in placing the basis for the Mughal reign in the Indian Subcontinent and turned out to be the first Mughal emperor. The custom of paradise estate was transported to India by the Mughals, initially from Central Asia, which is located at Babur's tomb, Bagh-e Babur, in Kabul. In Pakistan, the Mughal Shalimar Estates and the estate in the Tomb of Jahangir in Lahore are based on the Charbagh idea.

Note: A charbagh is situated on the rooftop of the Ismaili Centre in South Kensington, London. The Delegation of the Ismaili Imamat, situated on Sussex Drive in the Canadian capital Ottawa, Ontario comprises a charbagh in contemporary background. The Ismaili Center and Aga Khan Museum in Toronto structures a contemporary understanding of a charbagh amid the buildings. The University of Alberta Botanic Estate structures a charbagh in the Aga Khan Estates.
