About Tour: Agra is a historic city in a true sense. In every lane of this amazing city you can smell the signs of its glorious past. Though famous for the wonderful Taj Mahal, some other buildings of historical significance are also present here. The heritage of the city is connected with the Mughal dynasty but various other rulers also contributed to the opulent past of this city. Book a cab for an enjoyable tour.
Day 1 : Taj Mahal Visit
Taj Mahal: The world famous monument is one of the most glorious buildings built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan between 1632-1654 AD in the memory of his wife Mumtaj Mahal. Monument takes on different coloring at different times of the day, from a reddish pink in the morning, translucent white in the evening and golden at night when lit by the moon. We see the Taj in all the hues. It is believed that the changing color resembles the changing mood of the Emperor's queen.
Night rest.
Day 2 : Sightseeing/Back tour
We explore Agra Fort, Baby Taj Mahal and Fatehpur Sikri. In the morning we explore Agra fort and baby taj.
Agra fort: A UNESCO world heritage site Agra Fort is a structure par excellence built in red sandstone. It was built primarily as a military structure by Akbar but was later transformed into a palace by his son, Shah Jahan. A tragic story is attached with this great fort. It is believed that Shah Jahan was imprisoned by his son Aurangzeb for 8 years in the octagonal tower, ‘Mussaman Burj’ of Red Fort where he died ultimately.Itimād-ud-Daulah (Baby Taj): It is a Mughal mausoleum and very beautiful red sandstone structure is an interesting monument. Itmad-ud-Daulah means ‘Pillar of the Government’. Jahangir conferred the title to his father-in-law Ghiyas Beg. Baby Taj was built by Noor Jahan in the memory of her father. Though it is not as stunning as Taj Mahal but it is more delicate in appearance due to extensive use of finely carved marble lattice screens. After exploring Agra fort and baby Taj we drive straight to Fatehpur Sikri.
Fatehpur Sikri: This famous city, built by Akbar, is one of the most beautiful specimens of Mughal Architecture. It was abandoned over scarcity of water. Here we see Buland Darwaja, Diwan-i-Khas and Tomb of Sheikh Salim Chisti.
Buland Darwaja: This 54 metres structure is one of the largest gateways in the world. It was built by Akbar to celebrate his victory over Gujarat. It opens from 6 am to 6 pm daily.
Diwan-i-Khas: At this place Emperor Akbar used to hold discussions over the faiths related to different religions.
Tomb of Sheikh Salim Chisti: This highly revered place is a white marble structure showcasing excellence in craftsmanship.
