Badshahi Bagh in Mohanpur,Fatehabad,Agra.
Badshahi Bagh, located in the village of Mohanpur near Fatehabad, Uttar Pradesh, was constructed by Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in 1659. The garden was built to commemorate Aurangzeb's victory over his brother Dara Shikoh in the pivotal Battle of Samugarh, which took place on May 29, 1658, following the illness of their father, Shah Jahan. The battle was fought near Agra, approximately 8 miles east, marking a significant moment in Mughal history as it led to Aurangzeb's ascendancy to the throne.
Mughal ruler Shah Jahan had four sons Dara Shikoh, Aurangzeb, Shuja and Murar and two daughters Jahanara and Roshanara. Shah Jahan wanted to make Dara Shikoh his successor. Dara Shikoh was a lover of literature and was brave, but was never a good commander compared to Aurangzeb. Famous book 'Tawarik e Agra' mentions that Shah Jahan sent Aurangzeb with the responsibility of the province of the south. Here, in Agra, Shah Jahan started preparations to hand over the throne to Dara Shikoh. As soon as Aurangzeb got secret information about this from his sister Roshanara, he marched towards Agra with his army. Dara Shikoh also left with his army to stop Aurangzeb. Both the armies came face to face at Samugarh. In a fierce battle, Aurangzeb defeated Dara Shikoh on 10 May 1658. Dara Shikoh ran away to save his life. After achieving his first victory, Aurangzeb changed the name of Samugarh to Fatehabad.
Aurangzeb got a garden planted here on 40 bigha land. He got four chhatris built on the four corners. He named this garden Badshahi Bagh. A grand gate was built in the middle of the northern boundary wall, this gate is the main gate of Tehsil Fatehabad today. A gate was also built in the southern boundary wall, which is now destroyed. A palace was built in the middle of the garden, however, this construction is now destroyed.
Originally known as Samugarh, Fatehabad was established by Aurangzeb after his victory and is situated about 30-35 km southeast of Agra. It later served as a stable for the Maratha king Daulatrao Scindia during the early 19th century. The town and its surrounding areas are steeped in Mughal history, with Badshahi Bagh standing as a testament to Aurangzeb's reign and the cultural heritage that followed.
मोहनपुर, फतेहाबाद, आगरा में बादशाही बाग।
उत्तर प्रदेश के फतेहाबाद के पास मोहनपुर गांव में स्थित बादशाही बाग का निर्माण मुगल बादशाह औरंगजेब ने 1659 में करवाया था। यह बाग औरंगजेब की अपने भाई दारा शिकोह पर सामूगढ़ की महत्वपूर्ण लड़ाई में जीत की याद में बनवाया गया था, जो 29 मई, 1658 को उनके पिता शाहजहां की बीमारी के बाद हुई थी। यह लड़ाई आगरा के पास, लगभग 8 मील पूर्व में लड़ी गई थी, जो मुगल इतिहास में एक महत्वपूर्ण क्षण था क्योंकि इसने औरंगजेब को सिंहासन पर बैठाया।
मुगल शासक शाहजहां के चार बेटे दारा शिकोह, औरंगजेब, शुजा और मुरार और दो बेटियां जहांआरा और रोशनआरा थीं। शाहजहां दारा शिकोह को अपना उत्तराधिकारी बनाना चाहते थे। दारा शिकोह साहित्य प्रेमी और बहादुर था, लेकिन औरंगजेब की तुलना में कभी भी एक अच्छा सेनापति नहीं था। प्रसिद्ध पुस्तक 'तवारीख ए आगरा' में उल्लेख है कि शाहजहां ने औरंगजेब को दक्षिण के प्रांत की जिम्मेदारी देकर भेजा था। इधर आगरा में शाहजहां ने दारा शिकोह को गद्दी सौंपने की तैयारी शुरू कर दी। औरंगजेब को जैसे ही अपनी बहन रोशनआरा से इसकी गुप्त सूचना मिली, वह अपनी सेना के साथ आगरा की ओर चल पड़ा। दारा शिकोह भी अपनी सेना के साथ औरंगजेब को रोकने के लिए निकल पड़ा। सामूगढ़ में दोनों सेनाएं आमने-सामने आ गईं। भीषण युद्ध में 10 मई 1658 को औरंगजेब ने दारा शिकोह को हरा दिया। दारा शिकोह जान बचाने के लिए भाग गया। अपनी पहली जीत हासिल करने के बाद औरंगजेब ने सामूगढ़ का नाम बदलकर फतेहाबाद रख दिया।
औरंगजेब ने यहां 40 बीघा जमीन पर एक बाग लगवाया। उसने चारों कोनों पर चार छतरियां बनवाईं। उसने इस बाग का नाम बादशाही बाग रखा। उत्तरी चारदीवारी के बीच में एक भव्य द्वार बनवाया, यह द्वार आज तहसील फतेहाबाद का मुख्य द्वार है। दक्षिणी सीमा की दीवार में एक द्वार भी बनाया गया था, जो अब नष्ट हो चुका है। बगीचे के बीच में एक महल बनाया गया था, हालाँकि, यह निर्माण अब नष्ट हो चुका है।
मूल रूप से सामूगढ़ के नाम से जाना जाने वाला फतेहाबाद औरंगजेब ने अपनी जीत के बाद बसाया था और यह आगरा से लगभग...
