Jahangiri Mahal, Palace in Agra Fort, India

Jahangiri Mahal palace contains numerous chambers and courtyards adorned with intricate stone carvings, frescoes, and ornamental designs throughout its vast structure.

Emperor Akbar commissioned this residence in the 16th century for his Rajput wives, later becoming the primary residence of Nur Jahan during Jahangir's reign.

The architectural design merges Hindu and Islamic elements, with lotus motifs, geometric patterns, and traditional Indian decorative elements across its walls and pillars.

Entry to the palace comes with the Agra Fort ticket, priced at 40 rupees for Indian nationals and 550 rupees for international visitors.

The Hauz-i-Jahangiri, a massive stone basin carved from a single block, stands within the palace grounds for storing rose water during royal ceremonies.
