Khusro Bagh is a large walled garden that is situated near the Allahabad Junction Station. It is built around the tombs of Khusraw, Khusraw’s sister and the first wife of Jahangir Princess Sultan Nithar Begam, the eldest son of the Mughal ruler Jahangir and his mother Shah Begum.
The garden houses three sandstone mausoleums and is built with Mughal architectural style. Kushro rebelled against Jahangir and was imprisoned here and later killed by Prince Khurram in 1622 who became Emperor Shah Jahan later. He was entombed here after his death.
