Explanation

Babar, the founder of the Mughal Empire, introduced Persian-style gardens to India, which he described in his memoir Baburnama. He was known for his interest in horticulture and laid out several gardens using scientific Persian principles, including the famous Charbagh (four-part garden) style. This practice was continued and expanded by later Mughal rulers.
