Other typologies of the water system of Burhanpur are located along the north-eastern side of
picturesque Ahukhana, which was developed from the River Badi Utaoli with interconnected water
ponds between 1605–1627 A.D. Towards the north of this Ahukhana on the bank of the River Badi
Utaoli is the twin palace (Mughal pleasure retreat), Mahal Gulara, constructed by Mughal emperor
Shah Jahan. A 91 m enchanting masonry dam was constructed across the River Badi Utaoli with a small,
approximately 3.5 m high waterfall. This defined landscape with a picturesque setting was compared
with Kashmir in Shah Jahan-nama (the Chronicle of the Emperor), representing a medieval investment
of physical, natural and intellectual resources. In addition, there are many instances where the water
management system can be observed. For example, three large artificial tanks, namely the Ganga,
Jamuna and Badami tanks, and three artificial lakes, namely the Mama, Bhanja and Rani lakes, are the
outcome of the sustainable project of the construction of the Asirgarh forts. Asirgarh is located at the
highest altitude of the region, approximately 673 m above Indian mean sea level. Stones for its
construction were quarried from the same rocky outcrop on which the Asirgarh fort was supposed to
have been built. This quarrying of stone for its construction was a sustainable project associated with
the construction of artificial harvesting tanks, which made water available at such a high altitude
