Fatehpur Sikri is one of the 3 World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Two of the most happiest memories of Mughal Emperor Akbar's Life are associated with Sikri. First is the conquest of Gujarat by Mughal forces & second is the birth of a son, what he immensely wanted. It was built in 16th century but unfortunately when the construction was completed, they had to move & since then the city has been abandoned from last 450 years. It was a capital pf Mughal Empire in 16th century & was also a centre of trade back in the time. The monument is in 02 parts.
