Will ''keep updating'' this post.

Till now, i have read a lot about this wonderful and 'mesmerising' place, but not seen how it looks. Today surely will.

Akbar and Mariam Uz Zamani. This place is very much associated with BOTH of them. CONTRARY to popular opinion that, Sikri construction started after birth of Salim in 1569, due to blessings of Salim Chisti 'Sahab'; Sikri began MUCH BEFORE Salim's birth. Rang Mahal, used by MUZ, during Salim's Pregnancy, is one such building. Also, HK/MUZ is reported to have given a farman to get her palace constructed in Sikri, as per her choice, on Akbar's seal. This is another palace before Salim's birth. This was shown on the show.

This is how Fatehpur Sikri structures have been explained in accounts:
1. 'ROMANCE' in Stone
2. Poem in Stone
3. A wonder in stone
4. Poetry is Stone

They have described it to be a romantic cum spiritual cum aesthetic place.

There are many things but surely many about Akbar-MUZ.
