Agra is globally famous as the city of the Taj Mahal

. In the Mughal period, in the 16th and 17th centuries, Agra was the capital of India. Later after the foundation of the Mughal rule in India, Agra witnessed large-scale developmental work and it was at its zenith during the rule of Akbar and Shah Jahan. The Taj Mahal tour of Agra is thus truly enthralling and visitors are charmed by the beauty and glory of such a great work of art. It is more than 350 years since Taj Mahal was built in Agra, but it has not lost its romantic aura, which attracts millions of visitors to India to experience it.

This ultimate temple of love, standing gracefully by the sacred Yamuna at Agra, is set amongst the serene ambience of a well laid out garden. This monument took 22 years, 20,000 men labored over to complete and designed it. It is undoubtedly the epitome of India tourism. It is planned by Persian architect Ustad Isa. No word can justify the beauty of the Taj Mahal. It is a monument which no other in the world can match its beauty and grandeur. It can be said India travel is incomplete without experiencing the Taj Mahal.

Travel to Taj Mahal Agra to baptize into the true glory of this passion of love. Tourists in large numbers flock at the venue of the monument. As the sun rises to cast a reverential beam on the sepulcher, the 'dream in marble' turns from lavender to yellow, while nightfall sees the monument bathed in moonlight - looking like a woman wreathed in smiles while waiting for her lover. Apart from its stunning design balance and perfect symmetry, the Taj is also noted particularly for its elegant domes, intricately carved screens and some of the best inlay work ever seen.

It is because of this everlasting charm that the Taj Mahal in Agra can boast of being one of the most popular world heritage monuments on earth. In 1983 the Taj became a UNESCO World Heritage Site and was cited as "the jewel of Muslim art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage. The crowning glory of the city is obviously the Taj, a monument of love and imagination that represents India to the world.
