For devotees of Islam, paradise is said to be a celestial garden. Who created the marvelous earthly gardens of Kashmir, which stand to this day as a living symbol of the Muslim faith? This program tells the story of the Mogul empire in India, from the victory of Babur at Panipat through the reign of the syncretic-minded Akbar, who dreamed of integrating Islam and Hinduism. The intricately designed gardens of Kashmir, with their emblematic plantings and waterways, and the remarkable Hindu/Islamic architecture of Fatapur Sikri are featured
