The fabulous glamor of the iconic Taj Mahal attracts tourists to Agra like moths to a flame. Taj Mahal is the epitome of love and one of the Seven Wonders of the World besides being the pride of India. It is a mausoleum built for the Mughal ruler Shah Jahan’s wife – Mumtaz Mahal, who died in childbirth. Set behind a reverberating pool inside a yard defined by four minarets, the impressive main building has a solid dome and very special carved white marble inlaid with gemstones.With the Taj Mahal upstage it, one can easily forget that near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16th-century Mughal monument known as the Red Fort of Agra. It’s one of the greatest Mughal forts in India. It is worth a visit!
