Agra Fort

Agra Fort

Agra Fort is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of India's finest Mughal fortresses, built by Emperor Akbar in 1565 from red sandstone and later enhanced by Shah Jahan in white marble. Inside its massive walls lie stunning palaces — the Khas Mahal, Diwan-i-Khas, Sheesh Mahal, and the Jahangiri Mahal. From its Musamman Burj tower, Shah Jahan spent his final years gazing at the Taj Mahal across the Yamuna. An essential Agra sightseeing attraction on the Golden Triangle India tour.
