Bibi ka Maqbara Garden

3.7/5 (3 ratings)

Gardenvisit Editorial

The Bibi-Ka-Maqbara mausoleum was made for the wife of Aurangzeb (Shah Jehan's son). Like other Mughal tombs Rabia-ud-Durrani's tomb has a charbagh setting, with ponds, fountains, and channels. The garden is enclosed by crenellated walls with pavilions on three sides. Both garden and tomb have been compared to the Taj Mahal - and judged to the work of a less-talented designer (Atam Aula).

Address - Aurangabad, India

No doubt it was a gerat gardening specially in this dry region. A humble effort done by the officials.

Ya it is excellent gardening in the Bibi Ka Maqbara. I have visited recently the site and it is really a marvebelous effort to creat an aesthetic garden in this highly water scarcity area. An wonderful effort done by the officials.

It is regrettable that no money or effort is put in by the people who charge the Westerners 5 times more than locals to see these ancient monuments. There are no gardens to speak of and what few weeds grow at the Bibi are surrounded by plastic bags and other detritus. The Red Fort in Delhi, another Moghul garden of old, is similarly neglected. I have visited both these places several times and have seen little improvement despite increasing tourism.
