Nishat Bagh was designed by Asif Khan, the elder brother of Nur Jahan, in 1633 AD. It is believed that Emperor Shah Jahan on witnessing the grandeur and beauty of the Nishat Bagh, was so impressed and awestruck that he expressed his gratitude to Asif Khan three times.Like all the Mughal Gardens, the design and layout of the Nishant Bagh is largely influenced by Persian architecture.
It has a beautiful water channel flowing through the middle, which further adds to the romantic charm of the garden. Nishat Bagh is famous for its 7 terraces decorated with beautiful flowers like roses and lilies with each terrace representing a zodiac sign.
