3. Named as the ‘Baby Taj’, this monument is considered the inspiration for the world wonder, Taj Mahal. However, the tomb of Itimad-Ud-Daulah is a more delicate artwork with marble lattice screens and fine carvings. This is the first Mughal structure made with marbles by Nur Jahan, mother of Shah Jahan (builder of Taj Mahal). This was the first of many tombs to be erected on the banks of River Yamuna.

About Nuova Delhi

Nuova Delhi unisce i viali solenni della capitale indiana ai bazar e ai monumenti moghul della Vecchia Delhi, tra imperi sovrapposti e grande cucina.

La capitale progettata ruota attorno a un grande viale cerimoniale che va dall'India Gate al Rashtrapati Bhavan, il palazzo presidenziale. Nelle vicinanze, la Tomba di Humayun, precursore del Taj Mahal, sorge in giardini formali, e il Qutb Minar, un imponente minareto di arenaria, si innalza a sud. Il Tempio del Loto e il vasto complesso di Akshardham aggiungono notevoli monumenti moderni.
