Agra Travel TourPass-by Only
Two great Mughal monarchs, Akbar and Shah Jahan, transformed the little village of Agra into a befitting second capital of the Mughal Empire - giving it the name Dar-ul-Khilafat {seat of the Emperor}. Today a visitor to Agra is caught up in a world of contrasting edifices, of red sandstone and white marble, narrow galleys and quaint buggies. This city still retains that inescapable charm of the Mughals. It is found without any exception that the modern Agra still boasts of its Mughal heritage most conspicuously. A leisurely stroll down the narrow bustling streets of the city will acquaint you with the wafting aroma of Mughlai cuisine.
Taj Mahal
Upon your arrival in Agra, you will be greeted by our guide. Proceed to visit Taj Mahal Taj Mahal a UNESCO Heritage Site, to catch the sun rising over the Taj Mahal – undisputedly one of the world’s most beautiful buildings. In the soft morning light, as the mist rises from the Yamuna River, it seems to float like a mirage above the surrounding landscape. Built from dazzling marble, its colour changes from white to yellow, cream and to almost orange… an exquisite image that you’ll remember forever. Visit Taj Mahal the monument of everlasting love. It stands serene and perfect in its garden of cypresses and reflecting pools on the banks of the River Yamuna. It’s pure white marble shimmers silver in the moonlight, glows softly pink at dawn, and at close of day reflects the fiery tints of the setting sun. The Taj, in all its timeless beauty, was built by Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal who died giving birth to their 14th child. This monument was fashioned by 20,000 skilled workers to make the emperor’s dream a reality. It took 22 years to complete — a symbol of eternal love where Shah Jahan, too, lies buried, re-united at last with his beloved Mumtaz.
Agra Fort
After having a glance at Taj Mahal you will be taken to a restaurant for a delightful lunch. Later on, Agra Fort is the next destination. Visit Agra Fort and hear its fascinating story: Originally planned as an impregnable military structure by Akbar, the Agra Fort, over a period of time, acquired all the elegance, lavishness and majesty of an imperial palace. Situated 3 km upstream of the Taj Mahal on the right bank of the Yamuna, the Agra Fort was built under the direction of Akbar. It took eight years to complete and entailed an expenditure of three and a half million rupees
