Agra : Perhaps no other historical monument has evoked as much awe and admiration from tourists and travellers alike, as the magnificent Taj Mahal-fondly called by people as the ultimate requiem of love, from a great Mughal Emperor to his beloved.So overwhelming is the exquisite beauty and presence of this marbled mausoleum that centuries later today, even the very land where it has been located-Agra-has been immortalised as the City of the Taj.Yet, it doesn't take much for the roving eye to discover that there's more to Agra than just the fabled Taj Mahal.
Sight Seeing:
Taj Mahal: Reflecting the passions of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, the Taj Mahal in Agra was built in the mid-1600s as a tomb for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Later he was buried beside her.
Agra Fort: The 16th century old magnificent Mughal monument... the Red Fort of Agra is a powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses, within its 1.5 mile-long (2.5km) enclosure walls, the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It comprises many fairytale palaces such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls such as the Diwan-i-Khas; and Sheesh Mahal (The Glass Palace), which, inlaid with thousands of mirrors was once the harem dressing room. (ENTRANCE TICKET)
Itmad-ud-daulah: This monument in white marble standing across the river and short distance from the Taj, is believed by many to be an inspiration and model for the more famous mausoleum. It was built by Empress Noorjehan for her father, Mirza Ghiyas Beg, during 1622-1628 AD and pietra dura – inlay on marble – was first used here(ENTRANCE TICKET)
Sikandra :is the mausoleum of Akbar and is on the highway to Delhi, a little off Agra. The mausoleum complex is surrounded by a walled structure with its big arched gateway which is typically Mughal, complete with its own set of minarets and inlaid work. Inside the compound the main structure is encompassed by gardens and sprawling lawns. The main structure is quite big and mostly marble facade. Not too much artistry (by Taj standards), but nevertheless quite imposing. This place has a row of beautiful arches and doorways thus making it a photographer's delight.
