Mughal, India, a unique mark in the garden design world

Entry garden of the Taj Mahal

Mughal garden style is unique in its command of water.  Before their European counterparts could build the famed and lavish Renaissance  gardens, these cultures made their mark on the world of design.  Long courses of still water, for reflecting, made a statement for those in power.

Also using geometric form, the pavilion was introduced as a central feature. Again, these builders learned from former empires.
