Agra: India’s Most Visited City

City of the Taj Mahal, Agra is perhaps India’s most visited city by tourists. Once stronghold of the Mughal Empire, home of its fabulous treasury, Agra was the most prominent capital in a spectacular period of North India’s history. Today, dominated by the imposing presence of Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal, it is a city of nostalgia & memories, beautiful monuments offering reminders of its glorious past around almost every corner. In the city where the Mughals built like titans, and decorated like jewelers, the ancient skills that helped create the Taj Mahal are kept alive today by artisans producing gorgeous inlays on marble from plates and boxes to table tops.

Agra is easily accessible by road from both, Delhi & Jaipur. These three cities form the points of the ‘Golden Triangle’ of North India’s tourism holding the cream of its best monuments.
