the fascinating Char Bagh Gardens that ornament the

with About Taj Mahal.
The Char Bagh Gardens at the Taj Mahal complex in Agra,
India have been constructed in a manner that they add
a feminine grace to a dream mausoleum that was constructed
as a celebration of love and as a tribute to unmatched
beauty.
The concept of the ethereal Char Bagh Gardens have
their root in the religious beliefs expressed in the
holy Koran, that mentions that there are four rivers
in Allah's garden of paradise one of milk, one of wine,
one of water and the fourth one is a river of honey.
And since Shah Jahan wanted to create a dream in white
marble that would be quite like the Lord's paradisiacal
garden, as evident from the inscriptions on the main
gateway, the Char Bagh was of course an integral part
of the architectural design.
Almost 300 meters of the entire area of the Taj Mahal
complex in Agra, India is covered with the symmetrical
Char Bagh Gardens that have been so constructed that
at the one end of a ornamented water channels lies the
Taj Mahal, at another end lies the Mosque, the guest
house or the Naqqar Khana lies at one end and at the
fourth end lies the massive sandstone darwaza or the
main entrance to the Taj Mahal.
Exquisitely carved fountains and carefully planted
trees ornament the Char Bagh Gardens that add integrity
and character to the entire Taj Mahal complex in Agra,
India. Four watercourses separate the Char Bagh Gardens
at the Taj Mahal complex with a raised ornamental pool
at the center.
