About Ram Bagh (Aram Bagh)
Held to be the garden Babur laid out on the Yamuna after 1526, which would make it the oldest Mughal garden in India, later rebuilt by Nur Jahan as the Bagh-i-Nur Afshan. The terraces step down to the river with water channels and two pavilions, and the ASI has replanted the charbagh. It is quiet, a little bare, and mainly for people who want to see where the Mughal garden idea started.
What to see and do
- The oldest Mughal garden layout in India
