Agra is a city on the banks of the Yamuna River in Uttar Pradesh, India. Tradition and legend ascribe the present city of Raja Badal Singh (around 1475 A.D.) whose Fort, Badalgarh, Stood on or near the site of the present Fort. However, the 12th century A.D. Persian poet Salman writes of a desperate assault on the fortress of Agra, then held by one King Jaipal, by Sultan Mahmud of Ghazni.It was ruled by Sultan Sikandar Lodi in the year 1506. It achieved fame as the capital of the Mughal emperors from 1526 to 1658 and remains a major tourist destination because of its many splendid Mughal-era buildings, most notably the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Fatehpur Sikri, all three of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Hmmm....The taj Mahal looms large in Agra.I visited this ethereal monument sometime back when I was in India.So you can say the Taj Mahal is what makes Agra famous.But more than the marble beauty.....Agra is famous for love.....because where would have been the Taj had Shah Jahan not loved Mumtaj,his queen....The effort and years he put in to give the world this wonderful monument is a telling picture of the love that overflowed....I read his story...Ahhh...touching.....you may say what monument at first sightings ...but I do say what love..!!.....

Apart from that Agra has the Agra Fort,...the forst from where shahjahan looked at the lovely Taj and remembered his pretty wife....it still stands tall....and yes...the Agra Petha....very sweet and delicious....Bought some of them from eagerly selling boys...and yup....the flavours have never ever left.

City of agra is famos for taj mahal built by emperror shahjahan in the memory ofhis wife mumtaj.its one of finest structure and part of seven wonders of the world. govt earns huge forex thro taj because mainly tourist who ever comes to india do not go back withot a look at taj.its splendour can be seen on the full moon day when its glorius best.apart fom this agra is good for leather work particlarly the footwear.if you have not been to agra definitely go and see taj and buy some good leather material.
