Jasmine Palace is the residence of Shah Jahan, the fifth emperor of the Mughal Dynasty. He was imprisoned here in his old age and could only miss his beloved wife by looking at the Taj Mahal in the distance. The walls of this white marble palace are meticulously carved, and the window lattices and other parts are even translucent, comparable to ivory. But now the gate is fenced off to prevent tourists from entering. When Shah Jahan, the fifth emperor of the Mughal Dynasty, was imprisoned in this castle by his son Aurangzeb, the Jasmine Palace became his bedroom. He washed his face with tears every day, and often sat silently in the stone pavilion, full of longing for his beloved wife, looking at the Taj Mahal in the distance, until he passed away in loneliness and sadness nine years later. Since ancient times, emperors have no true feelings, but Shah Jahan is an out-and-out love.

Jasmine Palace is inside Agra Red Fort. It is interesting that the Agra Fort is built in red sand and stone, and there is a white and elegant building inside. Shocked by the exquisite carvings and inlayings here, it is beautiful
The Jasmine Palace in Agra is a beautiful palace, white marble carved in precious colored gemstones. It is also the sad place of Emperor Shah Jahan, who was finally imprisoned here by his son for eight years, and can only look at his favorite Taj Mahal every day, leaving a sad love story.
The Jasmine Palace is located in the Red Fort of Agra, near the Palace. This wonderful octagonal white marble tower and palace are where Shah Jahan was imprisoned by his son. Three hundred years ago, the old man, with a love of love, through the marble empty window sill, gazed leisurely at the distant burial of his beloved wife, the Taj Mahal. Unlike the red castle's heavy red architectural style, the Jasmine Palace is white overall, and the Taj Mahal architectural style is very similar, and as the name implies, the Jasmine Palace is inlaid with many jasmine patterns, I don't know if Sha Jiahan likes it or the beauty in the Taj Mahal loves it.
Yes, it is a good place to go out on weekends, and I will come back if I have time in the future.
Jasmine Palace or Octagon Pavilion is a special palace in Agra Fort, pure white marble carved in precious colored stones. It is rumored to be a palace built by Sha Jiahan for his concubine Taj. It is also where he was imprisoned by his son in his later years. The Jasmine Palace is in the distance from the Taj Mahal, and you can stand here looking at the Taj Mahal.
