India Tourism Information
Agra Tourism Information
Agra - the first impression is of a chaotic, overcrowded, polluted mess
that can offer nothing of interest. But wait, hold your breath, for hiding
behind the heat and the chaos is the stunning monument of cool white marble,
the wonder that is called the Taj Mahal. In Agra layers of history are peeled
away to reveal an amazing tapestry of life - of wars waged, of great architectural
magnificence and above all a testimony of the undying love of a king for
his queen. That Agra is unparalleled as a travel destination is an established
fact. Even Bill Clinton testified to as much when he declared the world
was divided into two: those who have seen the Taj and those who have not!
Besides the Taj Mahal though, there are a lot of other important sights
in and around Agra. The Agra Fort, Moti Masjid and innumerable other attractions
make the city feature on every travellers must-do-sightseeing list. Bangalore Tourism Information
