Want to visit Agra to witness the regal legacy of Mughals? This is perfect time to shape up your plan. With monsoon has embraced the entire north zone, weather is pleasant and River Yamuna is fluxing to the full in Agra. So pack your bags and enjoy the architectural and natural beauty of India’s one of the most ancient towns – Agra.

Taj Mahal is apparently the major attraction of Agra trip. Built in 17th century by a Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in remembrance of his wife Mumtaj, this stunning structure typifies love and affection. Architectural brilliance of the monument is just splendid, and leaves spectators becharmed indeed.  Another must-visit place in Agra is the Red Fort. This mighty monument is built of red sandstones and is another fine example of Mughal architecture. Some other places of tourist interest in Agar include the Itmad-Ud-Daulah’s Tomb, Akbar’s Tom in Sikandra, Fateh Pur Shikri and the Mughal garden of Ram Bag.

Perhaps, this is the most common reason that India is still referred as the country with the Golden Bird. The Golden Triangle Tours mainly consist of three attractive places. They are Rajasthan, Agra and Delhi.
