Shah Jahan was surprised by beauty of this building
Ritik Raj
The Taj Mahal, Fort, and Sikri immediately spring to mind when we think of Agra.
The fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, ruled from 1628 to 1658.
However, Chini Ka Rauza, also in Agra, is well-known for its impressive carvings and architecture.
Allama Afzal Khan Shakrullah Shirazi, a minister in the Mughal emperor Shahjahan's court, is buried in this tomb.
The fact that ceramics were utilised in its construction gives rise to the name Chini Ka Rauza.
Shahjahan was astounded by the structure's splendour.
The structure was designed to shine and was built with great care.
This is the only building in Uttar Pradesh with such exceptional craftsmanship.
Unfortunately, the building is in disrepair.
