Aam Khas Bagh is the remains of a highway-inn. It was divided into two parts - the Aam for public use and the Khas for private use by royalty. The inn was initially built by Akbar and planned by Mughal architect Hafiz Rakhna. It was rebuilt by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan along the Mughal military road between Delhi and Lahore. The Royal couple stayed in the old building complex while going to and coming back from Lahore. Later on, some additions were made to the structure by Mughal Emperor Jahangir.
