But whilst the Taj Mahal is unquestionably magnificent, the greater Agra area is also home to two other gems: The Agra Fort and the ancient ruins of the sandstone city of Fatehpur Sikri.
The symmetrical marble colossus that is the Taj Mahal was completed in 1653 and was described by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore as ‘the teardrop on the cheek of time’. The Taj Mahal gets to you that way. It’s the ultimate symbol of love and devotion. No wonder, the red tops went crazy when the late Princess Diana visited without Charles.
