Hello Friends..

I have found these pictures on Twitter and thought of sharing it with you all:

Sheikh Salim Chisit Mor Khana, where his guests used to stay:


The courtyard of the house of Sheikh Salim Chisti. Some buildings predate Fatehpur Sikri & wd be familiar to Akbar


Jodha Rang Mahal


Ruins of Room where Jehangir was born


The house where Jehangir was born is now a princely buffalo shed. The World Monument's Fund is about to restore it


Exciting ASI/WMF plan afoot to conserve Agra river front around Mehtab Bagh & Itmad ud-Daula & restore lost gardens


The Tomb of Itmad-ud-Daula


Sunset at Itmad-ud-Daula

Please follow him on Twitter for more such pictures :)

Its really a shame, they should have done it long ago. Other countries all take care of their heritage.
Anyway, its better late than never. 😉

The govt. ought to take steps towards restoring the ruins.
Such historical places need to be kept separate from settlements (The way the Chittorgarh fort is well maintained and desolate of settlements just a feet away, as we can spot in Jodha's Rang Mahal pic) or they would sorta lose their importance in the native's hearts.

After all this is our ancestral heritage.
Fancy turning a place of historical significance into a buffalo shed. 😡

EDIT: Thanks for sharing 'em with us. 😊
