Agra: The Captivating City of Love

The land of the Mughals has many architectural gems that will stun you with their beauty!

 

The Taj Mahal is of course, the darling of Agra and soon worms its way inside the heart of every soul who visits the ivory-white marbled mausoleum. Then there is the sprawling Agra Fort with stories of intrigue, bravery and romance that resonate from each corner. The aesthetically minimalist but no less pleasing to the eye, Akbar’s tomb at Sikandara, known for its intricate jaalis embedded in the red sandstone. Bask in the Sufi traditions of the city at Fatehpur Sikri, and visit Taj Ganj, a narrow grid of alleys surrounding the Taj Mahal, that’s known for its eateries and scrumptious kabab joints.
