India World Heritage Site: Fatehpur Sikri

World Heritage Site in India: Fatehpur Sikri I was taken there on a tour from Japan during Golden Week one year. I was invited by a friend to India, and at the time I had no interest in ruins, but as I post these posts I realize that I have actually been to many World Heritage Sites in India. lol It is a phantom city that was abandoned after 14 years, and is a rare ruin where Hindu and Islamic architectural styles are culturally fused. It seems to be in good condition as it was only used for 14 years. #WorldHeritage

Next on the map, we headed to Jama' Masjid in Fatehpur Sikri. The complex was built during Moghul Emperor Abu'l-Fath Jalal ud-din Muhammad Akbar reign in 1571-1575. I love the bricks, calligraphy, the ornamental decorations and just about everything. It reminds so much about the Hindustan film I watched on tv screen. Fatehpur Sikri was the first planned city of the Mughals to be marked by magnificent administrative, residential, and religious buildings comprises of palaces, public buildings, mosques, and living areas for the court, the army, the servants of the king and an entire city. Public is still using this mosque to offer their Friday prayers.
