Monty Don visits the world's 80 most inspiring gardens. In India, Monty visits the majestic tomb gardens of the Mughal emperors and the pleasure gardens of the Hindu Maharajahs. He looks at the quaintly British gardens of tea country and visits the famous architectural gardens at the Taj Mahal. Finally, Monty visits a little-known rock and sculpture garden. It was created in secret by one man out of found objects and rubbish, and it turns out to be Monty's favourite Indian garden.
