Journey from a monument of love to a fortress of power. Enter the colossal Agra Fort, a majestic red-sandstone citadel that was the seat of the mighty Mughal Empire. Traverse its grand courtyards, secret passageways, and marble palaces. From here, gaze upon your next destination—the distant Taj Mahal—and imagine the exiled Emperor Shah Jahan’s longing gaze.

Go beyond the monuments and discover the soul of the city through its living crafts. Witness the alchemy of artisans as they practice Zardozi, weaving dreams with golden threads into silk. Behold the meticulous art of Pietra Dura, where semi-precious stones are inlaid to create eternal floral masterpieces. This is a rare glimpse into the hands that continue to shape India's cultural heritage.
