Chahar Bagh
Chahar Bagh is a Persian term meaning "four gardens," referring to a traditional layout in Islamic garden design. This style divides a garden into four distinct sections, often intersected by water channels, symbolizing paradise. The design aims to create a harmonious balance between nature and architecture, reflecting the beauty of the natural world.
Historically, Chahar Bagh gardens were prominent in the Mughal Empire, particularly in India. One of the most famous examples is the Mausoleum of Taj Mahal, where the garden layout enhances the overall aesthetic and spiritual experience. These gardens continue to inspire landscape design today.
