Khusro Bagh

Location

This garden is a walled historic garden created by the Moghul king Jahangir, in memory of his beloved son Khusro. Khusro was murdered by his brother Shah Jahan. The garden has the tomb of the murdered prince, a sandstone mausoleum, which was completed in 1622. Prince Khusro’s mother Shah Begum was also buried next to him. She was believed to poison herself because of the despair over her son’s opposition to Jahangir.

This place is associated with the Indian freedom struggle. It is on G.T. Road near Allahabad Railway Junction. The garden is famous for Gauva and mangoes.
