This area is on the old Mughal highway, close to the river Yamuna & dotted with ruins from the medieval period. Our walk includes the Khair ul Manazil built by the famous wet nurse of Akbar, Maham Anga & also the place from where a murderous attack on the king took place; the shrines of Khwaja Nuruddin & Shaikh Abu Bakr (Matka Pir); the burial (that might not be) of one of most revered poets of Persian-Bedil; & a temple for Bhairon (a terrific form of Shiva), established to protect the legendary Indraprastha.
