Fatehpur Sikri

 

A world Heritage site built by the Mughal Emperor Akbar during 1564 A.D., Sonless Akbar went to Sikri for blessings of the Muslim Saint Sheikh Salim Chishti. When his son was born, the emperor as a gratitude, developed this place as his capital and named it Fatehpur Sikri. The beautiful marble tomb of Sheikh Salim Chisti attracts thousands who seek blessings of the revered Saint. Other renowned places are Diwan-e-Khas, Diwan-e-Am, Buland Darwaza, Panch Mahal, Jodha Bai's Palace and Birbal's House.
