Agra

A trip to Agra is a passage into the golden era of the Mughals. While the Taj Mahal is the undeniable main event, the city offers layers of history that require at least two days to fully uncover. Most travellers visit between October and March to comfortably walk the vast stone courts of Agra Fort and the ruins of Fatehpur Sikri.

Beyond the architecture, Agra is a city of flavors. From the world-famous white 'Petha' (a translucent ash gourd sweet) to the spicy morning staple of Bedai and Jalebi, the street food scene is legendary. Whether you're watching the sunset from the moonlit gardens of Mehtab Bagh or bargaining for leather goods in Sadar Bazaar, Agra promises a journey that is both grand and deeply grounded in local culture.
