I visited The Wonderful Shalimar Garden with my friends last weekend. This Garden is a place where everyone can enjoy and have a good time with family and friends. It was a very pleasant day and I had lots of fun by seeing and touching the greenery in the garden & also snapping some of my photos.
While we were entering the park we were given pamphlets which contained information as to why this park was built and it was written that "The site of the historic Shalimar Gardens were built by the Mughal royal family primarily as a venue for them to entertain guests. This was the property of Arain Mian Family of Baghbanpura. Shah Jahan rewarded them with the ‘Mian’ royal title for its services and contribution to the then Mughal Empire. The head of the family, Mian Muhammad Yusuf surrendered the property of to the Mughal Empire as he was pressurized by the Royal engineers. They were interested in that particular location because of its ideal positioning and the quality of the soil. But, Shah Jahan as a return favor granted the Mian family with the governance of Shalimar Gardens. It remained under their governance for nearly 350 years".
It is built in 16 th century but still its reflect the glory of the past. A huge wall is surrounded by the Garden. Royal gardens were always in close boundary walls so that they can be used exclusively by emperors and their families.
The garden has some gracious fountains. There are terraces or you may called them probably balconies in the Baradaris. The garden is divided into different zone. When you enters then it leads you towards downward through stairs to get into its lawns. It was suppposed to be the garden where Mughul Emperors had celebrated different sort of Royal functions. Classical musical programs in old times.
It looks very beautiful especially when all the fountains open. Fountains were supposed to be of greater charms for the Mughul families.
The other portion fountains down to the stairs (When stops throwing water)
When the Sun goes down and the sky then reflects the Sun's Lights That makes a cinematic scene in the Shalimar Garden.
On the date 14 date of moon when moon shows its full face it creates an awfull scene at Shalimar Gardens.
