Taj Mahal

Agra Fort - this majestic fort has sixteen palaces, has served as a home to six Mughal Emperors and offers a breathtaking view of the dominant Taj. Another UNESCO World Heritage Site

Itmad-ud-dualah - known as the ‘Baby Taj’. This look-alike was commissioned by Queen Noor Jahan as a tribute to her father

Fatehpur Sikri - another UNESCO World Heritage Site - you will find the highest gateway in the world, Buland Darwaza (Grand Entrance) and the Tomb of Salim Chishti. The Sufi Saint’s revered resting place attracts millions of people every year. It is widely believed that all your prayers will be answered here. And when one day they are, you must return to the shrine to perform a small ritual.

Dhobi Ghat - carpeted with yards of fabric in more colours known to man, it is an unlikely but popular destination. This part of the river, where washer-folk scrub their laundry, attracts photographers as well as filmmakers from all across the world. Locations in and around it were recently seen in Slumdog Millionaire.

Agra served as a home to the Mughal Dynasty and next to architecture their influence had the greatest effect on the cuisine. Don't miss out on authentic Mughali dishes - famous the world over for a very good reason
