Anguri Bagh

A Garden Within a Fort

Where Mughalelegance meets nature

Anguri Bagh occupies a distinctive place within Agra Fort, offering a softer and more intimate contrast to the monumental walls, halls and palaces surrounding it.

Associated with Shah Jahan's additions to the fort around 1637, the garden was attached to the Khas Mahal and formed part of the residential world of the Mughal court.

Its carefully ordered paths and planted compartments reflect the Mughal appreciation for symmetry, water, greenery and enclosed garden spaces — creating a refined retreat within one of India's most celebrated forts.
