A History of Agriculture in India v2.c71.s6: Architecture and Buildings

v2.c71.s6.1

Like most persons with creative imagination, Sher Shah encouraged architecture. He built a splendid mosque, a clever blending of richness and refinement, in the Purana Qila of Delhi. At Fatehabad in the Hissar District of Haryana, he built a mosque, which is decorated with tiles. His tomb stands on a high platform in the middle of a lake at Sahasram in the Shahpur District of Bihar.
