Angoori Bagh is the name of the quadrilateral inner garden in the Shahjahan section of the Agra Fort. Most of the main palaces of this part of the fort, including the Diwan-e-Khaas (the Hall of Private Audience), the Nagina Masjid, the Khaas Mahal, and the Musamman Burj are situated around this garden. Pretty parterres form a crisscross pattern across most of the garden, though there were no flowers here when we visited.

There's more than just the Taj Mahal to visit when in Agra. And the Red Fort is one.

Located just opposite to the Deewan-I-Aam of Shah Jahan, Anguri bagh was known for rich harvesting of grapes and flowers. You will be able to see amazing symmetry structure. There is a fountain in the middle. This garden was preserved for relaxation of royal ladies.

In the year 1637, Shah Jehan laid the foundation for Anguri Bagh, also known as the Garden of Grapes. The principal square of the Zenana apartments, also known as the living area of the royal ladies, was surrounded on all four sides by red sandstone arcades. To its east was the Khas Mahal, and on the other three sides were the arcades. There was a platform made of marble pavers with a fountain located in the middle of it, and the garden itself was sectioned off into compartments using an intricate geometrical pattern. This garden was well-known for its ability to produce the best grapes and flowers throughout the entire year, as the name of the garden suggests. It was planned out to be a relaxing retreat or the paradise garden for the royal ladies, and it guaranteed that they would have no one else around them at any time. To the northeast of it was where you'd find the hammams, or imperial bathhouses, which were decorated with exquisite wall paintings in regal blue and gold. The ponds and baths in this garden were supplied with water thanks

Angoori bagh is named after grapes 🍇 palace inside the fort. One can see the maintenance of fort is such they are still preserved with a bit of maintenance by Archeological survey of India. It’s a heritage and legacy of old time which need to be preserved to share more of historical information with people. Do visit and see the beautiful pictures of the fortress

After the taj visit, we must visit this place. I recommend going on weekdays. We went on Christmas time, it was overcrowded it took us hours to get in and explore . Please avoid weekdays and festival times for a peaceful visit

Anguri Bagh is a sprawling charbagh (four complex compartments) styled garden, centrally situated in the premises of Khas Mahal in Agra Fort. It was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in 1637 as his exalted place of leisure and rest. If touring Agra Fort, this is a must-visit spot for an insightful exploration of the Mughal history.Just 3 kms away from the Taj Mahal complex within the premises of Khas Mahal, in the heart of the city, the garden can be easily reached through local electric/ battery operated rickshaws, local rickshaws or even tongas. You can also hire auto-rickshaws to reach the park. Alternatively, you can book taxi cabs from anywhere in the city. The city is also well connected through state-run buses which you can avail. Recently, the management has also come up with the option of the ferry ride from the eastern side of the Taj to across here.
