Detailed Solution

Several Mughal marvels grace the cityscape of Agra with their unmatched beauty and splendour. The Mughals created the style of Indo-Islamic architecture during the mediaeval period as their empire expanded and contracted across the Indian subcontinent. It evolved from Iranian and Central Asian architectural traditions, particularly Timurid architecture, as well as earlier Muslim dynasties' architectural styles from India. Additionally, it added to and combined influences from other types of Indian architecture, particularly during the rule of Akbar (r. 1556–1605). Agra's monuments include the Agra fort, Taj Mahal and the tomb of Akbar. Mughals attached great importance to monuments; Aurangzeb, the last of the great Mughal builders, built the Moti Masjid, Bibi Ka Maqbara, and Badshahi Mosque.
