Description
Built by the Mughal emperor Akbar in 15th century.Seeking to revive the splendors of Persian court ceremonial made famous by his ancestor Timur, Akbar planned the complex on Persian principles. But the influences of his adopted land came through in the typically Indian embellishments. Constructed in the red sandstone the Fatehpur Sikri reflect the genius of Akbar in assimilating diverse regional architectural influences within a holistic style that was uniquely his own.
