How did a dancer become the Mughal emperor's wife? Qudsia Bagh, Mahal & Shahi Qudsia Masjid.
Qudsia Bagh, Mahal & Shahi Qudsia Masjid in Civil line, New Delhi. India. क़ुदसिया बाग़, महल और मस्जिद
Qudsia Begum - wife of the emperor Muhammad Shah, and mother of his successor-son, Ahmed Shah - laid out a beautiful garden complex adjoining the west bank of Yamuna. A palace, a summer-house, pavilions, and a mosque were set amidst rolling greens of rose and fruit gardens and murmuring waterfalls. Huge gateways punctured its surrounding wall.
Now, the sprawling greens have been taken over in part by one of the most un-romantic quarters of Delhi: the Inter State Bus Terminus. For the remaining part, one can still enjoy the bountiful well-maintained greenery, home to beautiful birds, resident squirrels, and an exotic splash of lush foliage; but this greenery exists in the unexpected neighbourhood of the bus terminus, from which emanates the incessant growl of modern machines.
Of the original structures, only a few remain today: the main western gateway, a mosque, and a garden pavilion. These too carry the scars of damage inflicted during the 1857 war.
