About
The Takht-e-Babri Garden, located within Chakwal's Kallar Kahar region of Punjab province in Pakistan, offers a known glimpse into the past while providing scenic vistas overlooking the nearby lake. This historic site holds significance as it was here that Mughal Emperor Babur addressed his army en route to conquer Delhi back in 1519. The garden and its iconic rock-cut throne, carved from a single piece of stone, are still partially preserved today - remnants of the first Mughal orchard planted within the subcontinent.
Tips
Adjacent to the throne, this garden is part of the first Mughal orchard planted in the subcontinent. Watch out for local monkeys which can be quite bold.
