8 Monuments Built By Women Beyond Patriarchial Horizons

Do you know how women in our country are gaining their place for which they fought so much and for so many years? However, if one takes the names of monuments, one can only imagine that some famous emperor built the monuments, and no one would even think about an empress. Well, not many people know that some of the great monuments built by women are a part of history, standing tall in all their glory and playing a significant role in the history and culture of our country.

Check out the list of some of the most impressive monuments built by women:

1. Itimad Ud Daulah, Agra

The fort of Itimad Ud Daula in Agra is popularly known as the jewel box on the banks of Yamuna River, and was built by the Mughal Empress Nur Jahan, who was the daughter of the Emperor Itimad Ud Daula, and wife of Emperor Jahangir. Nur Jahan built the Itimad Ud Daula Fort between the years 1622 to 1628 to honour her father.

It is a remarkable monument because it marked the end of red sandstone, and more delicate marbles appeared.
