5. The Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah, often referred to as the "Baby Taj," is a Mughal-era mausoleum located in Agra, India. Built between 1622 and 1628 by Nur Jahan, the wife of Emperor Jahangir, the tomb is dedicated to her father, Mirza Ghiyas Beg, who was given the title of Itimad-ud-Daulah, meaning "Pillar of the State." This exquisite monument is considered a precursor to the Taj Mahal, showcasing intricate Persian-inspired architecture with delicate marble inlay work, lattice screens, and floral motifs. Unlike earlier Mughal tombs made of red sandstone, this mausoleum is the first to be entirely constructed from white marble, setting a new architectural trend in India.

About Neu-Delhi

Neu-Delhi verbindet die stattlichen Alleen der Hauptstadt mit den Basaren und Mogulbauten Alt-Delhis: Reiche in Schichten und großartiges Essen.

Die geplante Hauptstadt ist auf eine große Prachtstraße ausgerichtet, die vom India Gate zum Rashtrapati Bhavan, dem Präsidentenpalast, führt. In der Nähe liegt Humayuns Grabmal, ein Vorläufer des Taj Mahal, in formalen Gärten, und im Süden ragt der Qutb Minar auf, ein hohes Minarett aus Sandstein. Der Lotustempel und die riesige Anlage von Akshardham setzen markante moderne Akzente.
