उत्तर
Initially, the style of architecture was Persian, for instance, Humayun’s Tomb. However, with the passage of time, Akbar’s architectural style became more and more Indian. Inspired by the palaces of Hindu rajas, Akbar’s later buildings reflect Rajput traditions.
Fatehpur Sikri, Akbar’s new capital city, contains many interesting Rajput-style buildings made of sandstone. It is referred to as a dream in stone. Among the many fine buildings are the Diwan-i-Khas, Panch Mahal, Jodha Bai’s Palace, and the Buland Darwaza.
