The Char Bagh of Islmanagar is one of the very few examples of the Char Bagh style of Mughal Gardens in Central India.
The tradition of the walled paradise garden goes back to the Persian Empire under Cyrus the Great to Timur of Central Asia, and in India, to Babur, the first Mughal ruler. The gardens are characterised by a geometrically laid out format with flowering and fruit trees, shrubs and flowers in precise symmetrical plots with a water course, meant not just to irrigate, but to cool and please the onlooker. In India, the famed Mughal Gardens of Kashmir are Nishat Bagh, Shalimar, Chashma Shahi, Verinag and Acchabal. The other known ones are in Pinjore (near Chandigarh), Delhi, Agra, Ajmer, Jdaipur and Aurangabad. And then there are the gardens of Lahore, Kabul, Samarkand, Bukhara, Isfahan, Herat and Shiraz. Spain (Cordoba, Seville and Granada), Morocco (Marrakesh) and Sicily are smong other paradise garden sites in Europe and North Africa.
