A classic work of Architecture of Mughal empire but less crowed in comparison with other popular monuments in Delhi, which offers great architectural details and more privacy to our work. We did a good 3 hour sketching to understand the important aspects of drawing, proportion, perspective and architectural study. Oh! did we forgot to mention that we had a lot of fun roaming around it, in self-indulgence (photographing ourselves) and of course having good food.
