The Gardens of Babur, also known as Bagh-e Babur, are a historic park in Kabul, Afghanistan, and one of the city's most famous landmarks. Established in the early 16th century by the Mughal emperor Babur, the gardens are renowned for their terraced layout, lush greenery, and intricate water features. Babur, who had a deep appreciation for nature, chose this site as his final resting place, and his tomb is located within the gardens. Over the centuries, the gardens have undergone various periods of neglect and restoration.
