These were set in the midst of formal gardens constructed in the chahar bagh format. The Chahar Bagh garden also had a variation that historians describe as the river-front garden. In this garden, the dwelling was not located in the middle of the Chahar Bagh but at its edge, close to the bank of the river. Shah Jahan adapted the river-front garden in the layout of the Taj Mahal, the grandest architectural accomplishment of his reign. Here, the white marble mausoleum was placed on a terrace by the edge of the river and the garden was to its south.
