Agra
Route : Delhi – Palwal – Kosi – Agra Known for the world's most beautiful monument of love, the Taj Mahal, Agra is where the Mughals lived out their theatrics of power and intrigue, of love and piety, of ambition and heartbreak... Yes Agra has seen it all...held it and lost it to now become an important holiday destination on a tourist agenda. Agra may have had a long innings as a religious and commercial hub for over three centuries but the Mughals turned the old city over its head and created a vibrant centre of power from where they dictated the fate of Hindustan. Situated in the rich alluvial plains of the Ganga and Yamuna Rivers, the city was an emblem of Mughal power and ambition, but it was also their home and they filled it with gardens and graceful palaces, settled their families and set up their places of leisure and worship. Its rich historical past never fails to enthrall tourists who greedily devour all the information poured out by the guides and locals. In fact, it wouldn't be wrong to call Agra the single most important tourist destination in India, its proximity to Delhi being an added advantage. Of course, India has much more to offer. There are many beautiful forts, beaches and cities scattered all across the country. In comparison, Agra just seems to be a crowded and dusty city. But to enjoy the ethereal beauty of a place you don't really need to pay much attention to its superficial charm.Besides the Taj Mahal, the Agra tourism department also invites tourists to a host of other attractions that include the grand Agra Fort, Fatehpur Sikri, Sikandra, Itmad ud Daulah and the like. If you think that is all you can do at Agra, there is more for you. Agra is a shopper's paradise especially for the international tourist who would like to carry home some mementos. In fact, you will never tire of shopping in Agra. Hotels/Resorts in Agra Grand Imperial, Agra
