Chini ka Rauza in Agra is a remarkable 17th-century tomb known for its stunning Persian-style architecture and glazed tile work. It houses the tomb of Afzal Khan, a scholar and poet who served in the court of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. The monument gets its name from the Persian word “Chini,” meaning Chinese porcelain, due to the beautiful blue, green, and yellow tiles that adorn its façade. Located on the banks of the Yamuna River, Chini ka Rauza is a peaceful site that reflects the artistic fusion of Mughal and Persian craftsmanship.
