2. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Agra Fort is one of the most impressive and historically significant forts in India. Built primarily in red sandstone by Emperor Akbar in 1565, this majestic structure served as the main residence of the Mughal emperors for generations. Inside its mighty walls lies a complex of palaces, audience halls, courtyards, and mosques. Notable highlights include the Diwan-i-Am (Hall of Public Audience), Diwan-i-Khas (Hall of Private Audience), Jahangir’s Palace, and the Musamman Burj, where Shah Jahan was held captive by his son and spent his final years gazing at the Taj Mahal in the distance. The fort not only reflects the grandeur of the Mughal Empire but also offers a deep connection to the dramatic stories of love, betrayal, and power that shaped India's history.

3. Mathura, located on the banks of the Yamuna River in Uttar Pradesh, is one of the seven holiest cities in Hinduism. Revered as the birthplace of Lord Krishna, Mathura is a spiritual hub steeped in mythology, devotion, and centuries-old traditions. The heart of the city is the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple Complex, believed to be the exact spot where Krishna was born over 5,000 years ago. Visitors can witness lively prayers, rituals, and sacred chants echoing through this revered site. The atmosphere is deeply spiritual and culturally rich, especially during festivals like Janmashtami. Beyond the main temple, the city is dotted with ghats, ancient shrines, and bustling bazars, offering an authentic experience of India’s spiritual soul.

About New Delhi

New Delhi verbindt de statige lanen van de Indiase hoofdstad met de bazaars en Mogolmonumenten van Oud-Delhi: een stad van rijken en geweldig eten.

De geplande hoofdstad draait om een grote ceremoniële laan van de India Gate naar Rashtrapati Bhavan, het presidentieel paleis. Daarbij in de buurt ligt Humayuns graftombe, een voorloper van de Taj Mahal, in een formele tuin, en in het zuiden rijst de Qutb Minar op, een torenhoge minaret van zandsteen. De Lotustempel en het enorme Akshardham-complex zijn opvallende moderne bezienswaardigheden.

Top-ranked sights in New Delhi: India Gate, Jama Masjid (Masjid e Jahan Numa), Chandni Chowk.
