(Distance 250 kms. / Travel time approximately 5 hours)

After breakfast at the hotel, we drive down to Agra, but en route we stop over at Abhaneri, situated about 95 kms. from Jaipur. This little village has one of Rajasthan’s most awesome ‘baoris’ (= stepwells). It is around 30 metres deep and among the largest stepwells in India. It not only stores water but is also very effective for groundwater harvesting. This stepwell, famous for its distinctive construction and a truly unique design, is one-of-a-kind and considered as the most picturesque in the world, which therefore naturally attracts a lot of attention from the visitors.

Fatehpur Sikri: This magnificent fortified ghost city was the capital of the Mughal Empire between 1571 and 1585, during the reign of Emperor Akbar. Although brilliant from an architectural point of view, Akbar’s city was erected in an area that was plagued by water shortages and it was abandoned shortly after Akbar’s death because of this.

Fatehpur Sikri’s beautiful and magnificent Jama Masjid (now brilliantly restored) is said to be a copy of the mosque at Mecca. The main entrance is through the impressive 54 metre-high Buland Darwaza (Victory Gate), considered as the tallest gateway in the world. It was constructed to commemorate Akbar’s victory in Gujarat.

In the northern part of the courtyard is the superb white marble ‘dargah’ or tomb of the sufi saint Shaikh Salim Chisti, who Akbar credited with bringing him a heir. The carved marble lattice screens (‘jalis’) are probably the finest examples of such work you will see anywhere in the country.

This amazing courtyard has many other wonders, such as the Palace of Jodh Bai, Birbal Bhavan, Panch Mahal and of course, Diwan-i-Khas (The Hall of Private Audiences) and ‘Diwan-i-Am’ (The Hall of Public Audiences). All these structures reflect the glory and the grandeur of the Mughal Empire. Upon arrival at Agra, we check-in at the hotel. In the afternoon.

Day 6 : Agra To Delhi (Distance 215 kms. / Travel time approximately 4 hours)

After breakfast, we proceed for a city tour to discover the Taj Mahal (Closed on Fridays). Described as the most extravagant monument ever built for love, this poignant Mughal mausoleum has become the ‘de facto’ tourist emblem of India.

The Taj Mahal was built by Emperor Shah Jahan as a mausoleum for his second wife, Mumtaj Mahal, who died in childbirth in 1631. Construction of this edifice built with pure white marble began in the same year and it took 22 years to finish the same. In total, a total of 20,000 people and craftsmen from India and Central Asia worked on the building.

The semi-translucent white marble, the exquisite screens, the fabulous carvings and ‘pietra dura’ inlay work (with thousands of semi-precious stones in beautiful patterns) are the most striking features of this spectacular mausoleum. Despite the effects of pollution and overexposure, a visit to the Taj Mahal is still an overwhelming experience and the monument seems as immaculate today as when it was first constructed.

We then continue our tour with a visit to the Agra Fort, on the bank of the Yamuna river. Construction of this massive red stone fort was begun by Emperor Akbar in 1565 and it was built primarily as a military structure.

The auricular fort’s colossal double walls rise over 20m in height and measure 2.5 km. in circumference. They contain a maze of buildings that form a small city within a city. The most impressive building to survive is the ‘Moti Masjid’ (Pearl Mosque), regarded by some as the most beautiful mosque in India. Other places of importance are ‘Diwan-i-Khas’, ‘Diwan-i- Am’, ‘Musammam Burj’ and Jehangir’s Palace.

After lunch, we make a halt at the exquisite ‘Itimad-ud-Daulah’, the tomb of Mirza Ghiyas Baig, the Persian gentleman, who was Emperor Jehangir’s ‘wazir’ or chief minister, and his beautiful daughter, Nur Jahan, later married the Emperor. She constructed the tomb between 1622 and 1628 in a style similar to the tomb she built for Jehangir near Lahore in Pakistan.

Although much less elaborate, many of the Itimud-ud-Daulah’s design elements foreshadow the Taj Mahal, earning it the nickname ‘Baby Taj’.
