Fatehpur Sikri
Once the capital until 1585, this city is situated in the state of Uttar Pradesh and founded by Mughal Emperor Akbar. Today it is very much a ghost town, ruins of the bazaars and vacant imperial buildings still standing perfectly preserve a time forgot. The highlight is the palace, its fairy tale structure was created using traditional methods and influences in local red-sandstone, it is surrounded by walls and a picturesque lake to one side.
Other highlights and points of interest in the Sikri include the Jama Masjid, Buland Darwaza, Panch Mahal and Tomb of Salim Chishti.
Amber Fort
Set on a pedestal ooverlooking the gardens and lake below, Amer Fort comprises of four sections; intricate, detailed courtyards, private quarters and exquisite entrance gates. The best times to visit are early morning or in the evening, in the mornings the fort glows in its soft light, sandwiched between lush greenery, the mountain background and the blue sky, while in the evening, the structure’s warm hue is a picture that will stay with you for an eternity.
Raj Ghat
A must see on your trip is the cremation site and memorial to the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. Raj Ghat is a simple black marble platform marking the spot where Gandhi was cremated on 31 January in 1948. Located by the River Yamuna and within beautiful grounds, it has several beautiful lawns fitted with fountains, where you can sit and relax, whilst taking in the peaceful surroundings.
Since The Taj lovingly restored the palace to its former grandeur and beauty and it has become one of the romantic destinations in the world. The Lake Palace complex is a series of architectural wonders in their own right, the walls of this masterpiece are made of white and black marble and adorned with semi-precious stones. Elaborate gardens, fountains and pillared terraces adorn the interiors of the palace and magnificent courtyard. The Lake Palace is world famous and has been the site for several iconic film shoots like the James Bond film, Octopussy.
