Agra to the Taj Mahal
We visit the Taj Mahal, which
was built in the 1640s as
a memorial to the wife of
Emperor Shah Jahan. We then
visit Akbar’s Mausoleum,
followed by the Agra Fort –
another UNESCO World
Heritage Site – which was the
residence of the emperors
of the Mughal Dynasty until
1638, when the Mughal
capital was moved to the
Red Fort in Delhi. We see out
the day at the Mehtab Bagh
complex, and we spend a
second night in Agra.
