Architecture


Fatehpur Sikri (near Agra)
Built during the second half of the 16th century by the Emperor Akbar, Fatehpur Sikri (the City of Victory) was the capital of the Mughal Empire for only some 10 years. What is left is a complex of monuments and temples all in a uniform architectural style. Beautiful.
