At the age of 45, Mughal Emperor Babur died on 26 December 1530 in Agra and was buried in Aram Bagh. It is the oldest Mughal garden in India, which was built by Babur in 1528. However, before death, Babur had expressed his wish that he should be buried in Kabul and his grave should be made there. Babur’s son Humayun could not fulfill his father’s wish and he was temporarily buried in the rest of the Yamuna on the banks of the Yamuna.

14 years after death again buried

About 14 years after the death, Babur’s last wish was fulfilled in 1544 and was buried again at Bagh-e-Babar in Kabul. Like Aram Bagh, this garden was built by Babur himself after winning Kabul in 1504. During the rule of Hindustan, Babur used to remember his country again and again and this is also recorded in his autobiography. Perhaps this was the reason that he had expressed his desire to be buried in Kabul.

According to UNESCO report, the body of Mughal emperor Babur was brought to Bagh-e-Babar around 1544 by his widow. One of the reasons for choosing Bagh-e-Babar was that the region was used as a cemetery during Babur’s ancestors. The Bagh-e-Babar in Kabul became a symbol of honor in Kabul as a garden of the mausoleum of the founder of the Mughal dynasty. For about 150 years, his successor, especially Jahangir and Shah Jahan expressed their respect at Babur’s tomb and according to the trend, they also got many constructions to preserve and beautiful the garden.

The grave is built in Bagh-e-Babar

Bagh-e-Babar is situated on the slopes of Kuh-e-Sher Darwaza in the south-west of the old city of Kabul. This garden is spread over about 11.5 hectares, with 15 roofs in addition to one main gate. Tourists coming here from the top roof see a spectacular view of the snow -covered mountains across the Kabul river besides the garden and its wall.
