Here, the sheer magnitude of the Taj Mahal finally comes into view, and you can feel the weight of history surrounding you.

One of the most captivating sites within Fatehpur Sikri is the stunning Jama Masjid, a magnificent mosque adorned with beautiful domes and delicate carvings. Its peaceful courtyards invite reflection, and the soft rustle of prayer mats transports you into a meditative state. Stories of Akbar’s spiritual journey and his quest for knowledge echo in the halls of the Ibadat Khana, where scholars from various religions once gathered to engage in philosophical discussions, fostering a spirit of unity and understanding.

Another highlight is the stunning Panch Mahal, a five-story palace that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Its unique architecture, characterized by a series of columns and intricate jali screens, provides a glimpse into the luxurious lifestyle of the Mughal emperors. As the sun dips below the horizon, the play of light and shadow across its surfaces creates an ethereal atmosphere, making it a photographer’s paradise.

गोसाई जी उत्सव कि झाँकी। Shreenathji Jhanki for Shree Gosai Ji's Birthday. 18cm x 13.5cm Natural Pigments on Vasli Chakdar jama - Mughal court dress with four corners. The dress has four distinct 'panels'. The back two are lifted and pressed against the steele - hence the way it looks. Jewellery offered has large golden pendants strung with pearls. A golden ‘hamel’ with lots of pendants is also offered on the day. Hamel is worn like a janeu. Shri Gusaiji wore a similar dress with a matching turban when he went to the Imperial court at Fathepur Sikri. It was yellow/orange as Gusaiji went as a religious leader. Generally the courtiers would have worn white ones or ones with stripes. Gusaiji's birthday comes in winter and he offered this dress on his birthday. As it was cold, they would have worn socks to keep their feet from freezing on stone floors of the palatial Haveli #Heritage #Historic #History #Art #MyArt #Aesthetic #Beaut #Gods #GodsOfIndia #Krishan #BalKrishan #Nathdwara #Shreenathji #ThakurJi #Romanticise #ArtImitateArt #ImperialCourt #Beautiful #NaturalPigments #StoneColours #Vasli #Jaipur #JaipurDiaries #JaipurJournal #Rajasthan #India #IncredibleIndia

On our way back from the #Taj on Saturday, we stopped by #fathepur #sikri, the ghost city. It was the old capital of #India, but due to water shortage (apparently, there was only salt water), the capital was moved to #Delhi. It was so cool to see the three #terraces he built for his three wives. What a beautiful, well-preserved place. #vegvoyages #summer2017 #travel #instatravel #ghostcity #uttarpradesh #fathepursikri #agra (at Fathepur Sikri, Rajasthan)
