The Red Fort of Agra is a powerful fortress built of red sandstone. It was the imperial city of the Mughal rulers.  Within the Fort, you will find many fairy tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal - built by Shah Jahan. Also view audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas as well as two very beautiful mosques.

You will then travel about 1.5 miles to visit the magnificent Taj Mahal often thought of as a “Monument to Love”.  Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan built this monument in memory of his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal. The Taj Mahal is an immense mausoleum of beautiful white marble with inlaid precious stones built between 1631 and 1648.  It is the jewel of Muslim art in India and considered to be one of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in the world.  As you tour the famed landmark you will have an opportunity to witness the transformation as the monument is bathed in the warm glow of sunset.
