Pinjore Gardens is a Mughal-style garden located in Haryana, India. It was designed in the 17th century by Nawab Fidai Khan and features seven descending terraces lined with flowering shrubs, cypress trees, and magnolia. A central waterway runs through the garden, reflecting the sky. Hardscape elements like pathways, fountains, and signage add visual interest. Mughal gardens typically have a formal, rectilinear layout within walled enclosures and include reflecting pools, fountains, and orchards.
