TajMahal- the most popular and one of wonder of the world is
what makes Agra famous for.
From a childhood days, I always wished to see Taj Mahal. We
went Agra for a business meeting with our clients at The Oberoi Amarvilas.
Meeting finished at 4 in evening then to fulfill my dream we visited to Taj
Mahal.
TajMahal- the white
marble stone made shining mausoleum is so serene, heavenly and magnificent which
will make you stuck with startled eyes for long to experience the beauty of it.
The lovely and the most superb creation of Shah Jahan by his craftsmen and
architecture had this Mahal built in remembrance of his beloved wife Mumtaj.
Rudyard Kepling was true is describing the Taj Mahal as the embodiment of all
things pure.

The fountains, the
Yamuna running behind, the green grasses carpeted the two sides in the entrance
and the sitting benches reminds of why world’s most famous kings and queen
visited the glorious TajMahal. The two mosques on the two sides are all so dynamic
and wonderful to see.
The bonding and eternal
love between the benevolent emperor Shah Jahan and his
wife Mumtaj can be felt all around the place.
As you travel across
the landscapes of Agra you can re-discover what you have learnt in your History
books.
The Agra Fort is another marvelous piece of architecture which was also built by Shah Jahan in the 16th century. The red sandstone was used to build the entire fort with rich carvings and arts of both ancient and modern mixture.

shrubs and was the Mughal garden during the rule of the first Mughal ruler
Bubur who came to rule India in the year 1526A.D.
The Dewan-E-Khas is also
another famous attraction which was built by Shahjahan for conducting meetings
with his personal ministers and other kings.
