Babur had created umpteen fine Tombs, Mosques, Madrassas and numerous beautiful Gardens in every palace and province, which still bear the glory of Mughal architecture during Babur's reign. The Jama Masjid at Sambhal, and Babri Mosque in Ayodhya, built by Babur, still bears the testimony of the development of architecture during Babur.

During his five-year reign, Babur took considerable interest in erecting buildings, though few have survived. His grandson Akbar built widely, and the style developed vigorously during his reign. Among his accomplishments were Agra Fort, the fort-city of Fatehpur Sikri, and the Buland Darwaza.
