Agra Tour
Taj Mahal is undoubtedly the most popular, very beautiful, and quite well looked after monument you will visit during your India trip. It has retained its position in the Seven Wonders of the World. Well publicized the world over, international celebrities and dignitaries who come to India invariably visit Taj Mahal and get their photos clicked with the main dome as the backdrop. Easily the hottest heritage site and tourist attraction in North India, Taj Mahal is at the center of a whole range of tourism and hospitality industry at Agra. You can find some of the best-rated hotels at Agra, aroma of Mughlai cuisine wafting through the narrow lanes of the city’s markets and several shops that sell inlaid marble tabletops and trinket boxes, stone-carved artworks, and miniature replicas of Taj Mahal in marble and soft stone.
The other tourist attractions at Agra include red sandstone Agra Fort, which is 100 years older than Delhi’s Red Fort; Ram Bagh founded by Babur on the lines of Persian Gardens on the bank of River Yamuna; Itmad-ud-Daulah’s Tomb designed by creative mastermind Empress Noor Jehan with intricate tile work, which is also known as the Jewel Box or Baby Taj; Sikandra – the tomb of Emperor Akbar; and Chini ka Roza.
Fatehpur Sikri, the best planned Mughal city founded by Emperor Akbar, stands close to Agra and holds some of the most remarkable structures. Buland Darwaza at Fatehpur Sikri is the world’s largest gateway while the Dargah of Sufi saint Sheikh Salim Chisti is equally revered by both Hindus and Muslims. The ongoing work at Dayal Bagh is an engaging sight for foreign tourists who wish to see how a monument is created and witness all the hard work that goes into planning and construction of a large heritage project.
