Agra & Delhi

Agra – a rich history, delightful tourist attractions and a vibrant presence – that is Agra for you. Though the city has come a long way since its days as a Mughal stronghold, it still retains its old worldly feel that simply delights every visitor. Moreover, the tourist attractions in Agra are such that one simply cannot have enough of them.

The very first thing that comes to the mind at the very mention of Agra is the ethereal Taj Mahal. Having inspired many singers, artists and poets till date, this exquisite creation is a heartfelt tribute to Mumtaz Mahal by her husband, Emperor Shah Jahan. Right from brochures to promotional videos, the Taj has featured in almost everything when it comes to promoting India to tourists around the world. Indeed, so overwhelming is the presence of the Taj that it is sometimes felt that the other tourist attractions in Agra pale in comparison.

However, Agra boasts of many other delightful attractions that can make your trip an affair to remember. The Red Fort in Agra is one such monument that is sure to amaze you no end. Built in 1565 by Emperor Akbar, this fort houses many interesting structures and exquisite palaces that dazzle the eyes. The Jama Masjid that is one of the largest mosques in India is another monument to visit. Other Agra tourist attractions include the tomb of Itimad Ud Daulah, Chini ka Rauza, Rambagh Gardens, Dayalbagh Gardens and Buland Darwaza. You can also travel a little distance to visit the Akbar’s tomb at Sikandara and the Fatehpur Sikri complex.

Shopping in Agra is something not to be missed. Indeed, Agra is a shopper’s paradise where you can buy everything from marble products to delicate rugs that can brighten up your living room.

Delhi is the proud capital city of India and is also a veritable mirror to the glorious history and rich heritage of the country. This is perfectly exemplified in the numerous forts, temples, museums and other major tourist attractions in Delhi that speak of the city’s intriguing past. Delhi is clearly segregated into Old and New Delhi, each of which boasts of being home to several attractions that are largely visited by tourists from the world.
