THE MONUMENTS YOU CAN VISIT WITH LOCAL TOUR GUIDE OF AGRA
We advise you early morning start to enjoy sightseeing of Taj Mahal at sunrise time. This time it is comparatively less busy and you enjoy the enchanting beauty of the Taj Mahal when the first sunray falls on the main dome. The Taj Mahal, an ivory-white marble tomb, represents the immortal love of fifth Mughal king Shah Jahan towards his most loving Begum Mumtaz Mahal, in whose memory he constructed it. A team of civil engineers were invited from Zainabad, a city in Iran, who inspected the site where the Taj Mahal stands now. After finalizing the site, a team of twenty thousand craftsmen work consistently for twenty-two years. It is made of the white marble that was brought from a query of Makrana, a town in Rajasthan. Your Agra Tour Guide will narrate to you the history of Mughals and the legend of eternal love between Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal. After the Taj Mahal, you can return to your hotel for breakfast and then visit Agra Fort. The Agra Fort, also called the red fort by few tourists because it is made of red sandstone, was constructed by the grandfather of Shah Jahan, the third Mughal king Akbar. The entire Fort is surrounded by two huge walls separated by a water moat for the security of royals living inside the Agra Fort. Inside the Fort, you can see a combination of fascinating buildings and palaces constructed during the regime of the Mughals. Now you can visit Mehtab Bagh, a riverside garden, on the opposite side of the Taj Mahal, the site where some scholars believe that Shah Jahan wanted to construct a black Taj Mahal. The garden is known for its panoramic view of the Taj Mahal. From here your Agra Tour Guide will take you to another site made of marble, the Baby Taj. The Baby Taj, the Tomb of Itamad ud daullah, was constructed by empress Nur Jahan, the 21st wife of Jahangir, the fourth Mughal king. It is the first mausoleum made of white marble in Agra before the construction of the Taj Mahal and it is believed that most of the designs in Taj Mahal are copied from Baby Taj Mahal. After ending your local sightseeing in Agra, you can visit the famous food market to taste the delicious chat of Agra. Also, you can visit the marble inlay souvenir factory cum shop where you get an idea about inlaid work done at the Taj Mahal. The tour ends.
