Khusro Bagh is a historical garden where the tombs of Prince Khusro and Sultan Begum are located. The prince was the eldest son of Jahangir and didn’t live a very long life. Hence, in his name, the garden was constructed. Within the garden, you will find three mausoleums, built-in exquisite Mughal architecture. While two of them belong to the Prince and Sultan Begum, the third one belongs to Khusro’s sister, Nisar.
