Summary
You may not know Agra’s name, but you’ll certainly know its most famous sight – the Taj Mahal. Spanning out from a horseshoe bend in the holy Yamuna River, the city came to the fore during India’s Moghul period, when its emperors built magnificent structures here. Chief among them, the Taj Mahal is rare in being as mesmeric in real life as it is in photographs and on film. To walk among its gleaming white marble during guided tours of Agra is to enter a sort of paradise. Elsewhere in the city, Agra Fort claims a different kind of elegance, but one which still manages to take the breath away.
