Agra, located 230 kilometres southeast of Delhi, is a gem in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. With a population of approximately 1.6 million residents, Agra has a rich historical background, with its importance rising during Sikandar Lodi's reign and reaching its pinnacle under Mughal rule. The city flourished as a hub of learning, arts, commerce and religion, leading to the construction of architectural masterpieces such as the Agra Fort, Sikandra and the world-renowned Taj Mahal, the latter two of which have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Known for its mild winters and hot, dry summers, Agra is a key destination on the famous Golden Triangle tourist circuit, alongside the cities of Delhi and Jaipur. The Uttar Pradesh Heritage Arc tourist circuit also includes Agra, as well as the cities of Lucknow and Varanasi. With its expansive history, Agra is known by several names through the ages, from the ancient city on the left bank of the Yamuna River to the modern city founded by Emperor Akbar on the right bank. Agra's cuisine is heavily influenced by the Mughal era, featuring delectable Mughlai dishes to satiate your taste buds.

When to visit Agra

The optimal time to explore Agra and its magnificent attractions is between October to March, when dry and warm weather prevails. Budget-savvy travellers may find better deals on accommodation in March, October and November, as these months tend to be less crowded than the peak season that spans between December to February. To capture the Taj Mahal's awe-inspiring beauty, visit during sunrise or sunset, while the Agra Fort is best seen in the afternoon. Agra features a wide range of accommodation options, from luxurious hotels overlooking the Taj Mahal to budget-friendly hostels suitable for those looking to save on travel expenses. Don't forget to explore other popular local attractions, such as Fatehpur Sikri, Agra Fort, and Itimad-ud-daulah's Tomb during your stay.
