1. The Taj Mahal ( 'Crown of the Palace')is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the right bank of the river Yamuna in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. It was commissioned in 1631 by the fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan (r. 1628–1658) to house the tomb of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal; it also houses the tomb of Shah Jahan himself. The tomb is the centrepiece of a 17-hectare (42-acre) complex, which includes a mosque and a guest house, and is set in formal gardens bounded on three sides by a crenellated wall.

2. The Agra Fort is a historical fort in the city of Agra, and also known as Agra's Red Fort. Mughal emperor Humayun was crowned at this fort. It was later renovated by the Mughal emperor Akbar from 1565 and the present-day structure was completed in 1573. It served as the main residence of the rulers of the Mughal dynasty until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. It was also known as the "Lal-Qila" or "Qila-i-Akbari".[1] Before capture by the British, the last Indian rulers to have occupied it were the Marathas. In 1983, the Agra fort was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its importance during the Mughal Dynasty.[2] It is about 2.5 kilometers (1.6 mi) northwest of its more famous sister monument, the Taj Mahal. The fort can be more accurately described as a walled city. It was later renovated by Shah Jahan.

About New Delhi

New Delhi forener Indias hovedstads staselige alléer med Gamle Delhis basarer og mogulmonumenter, en by av lag på lag av imperier og fantastisk mat.

Den planlagte hovedstaden har sitt sentrum i en stor seremoniell allé som løper fra Indiaporten til Rashtrapati Bhavan, presidentpalasset. I nærheten ligger Humayuns grav, en forløper for Taj Mahal, i formelle hager, og i sør reiser Qutub Minar seg, en tårnhøy minaret av sandstein. Lotustempelet og det enorme Akshardham-komplekset er slående moderne landemerker.
