Same Day Taj Mahal and Agra Tour By Train from Delhi — Agra City is well-known around the entire globe. Historically, it was the Mughal capital, and it is today famed for Mughal monuments. It has many different types of grandeur, including the Taj Mahal, the Red Fort, and others. Now, when it comes to Agra’s amenities, it’s excellent; Agra has 5-star hotels and even more exquisite restaurants.
The Taj Mahal (Symbol of Love): The Taj Mahal integrates and develops Persian architectural and older Mughal architectural design traditions. This massive white marble construction rests on a square base. It features a symmetrical building with an iwan capped by a giant dome and finial. Like those found in most Mughal tombs, the essential components are Persian in origin. And the foundation construction is essentially a giant, multi-chambered cube with chamfered edges that forms an uneven octagon with four long sides of around 55 meters each. A massive pishtaq, or vaulted archway, frames the iwan on these sides, with two similar-looking, arched balconies stacked on either side.
Red Fort of Agra: The Hindu Sikarwar Rajputs controlled Agra Fort initially as a brick fort. It was first documented in 1080 AD when a Ghaznavide force seized it. Sikandar Lodi was the first Delhi Sultan to relocate to Agra and dwell in the fort. Many architects laid the foundation, and it was constructed with bricks in the inner core and sandstone on the exterior surfaces. Four thousand workmen labored on it every day for eight years, finishing it in 1573.
