How to Visit Three Important Cities with Your India Tour





India is a country with a diversity you'll rarely come across in any of the other countries. Although you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to places worth visiting in this country, there are some destinations you just can't miss during your tours in this part of the world. One of them is an Indian tourist circuit called the 'Golden Triangle', which covers Jaipur, Delhi, and Agra. You can explore this tourist circuit with the help of packages booked with one of the leading tour operators or go on a private journey by taking a coach.

When booking an India tour with any of the leading tour operators, you would get the option of choosing a package of the Golden Triangle. Upon booking this package, you'll get to visit the cities of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. Your tour would start in Delhi, the capital of India. One of the places you must never forget to visit while in Delhi is Chandni Chowk. This amazing market located in Old Delhi was created in the 17th century by the Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan. As you begin exploring this old market, you'll come across various stalls that sell a wide range of items, such as electronics, perfumes, textiles, and some delicious food.

Another fascinating monument you can visit during your time in Delhi is the Red Fort, which is popularly known in India as 'Lal Qila'. It has been built on the banks of the Yamuna River and is considered one of the best examples of Mughal architecture. After exploring the major attractions and sights of Delhi, the next destination is usually the charming city of Agra, which is home to the world-famous Taj Mahal. This city is about 200 kilometres away from New Delhi and was once the capital of the Mughal Empire.

This city is home to the Agra Fort, which is one of the most popular monuments created by the Mughals. However, this city is known worldwide for its iconic monument, the Taj Mahal. Built in the 17th century, this ivory-white mausoleum made of marble was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. The complex includes a guest house, a mosque, and gardens that are bounded by a wall on three sides. Another great attraction you can't afford to miss is Fatehpur Sikri, a city made of red sandstone. Some of the attractions you can visit while getting around in the city are the tomb of Salim Chisti, Diwan-e-Aam, and Diwan-e-Khas.

Your tour of the Golden Triangle would typically end with a visit to Jaipur, which is also known as 'The Pink City'. The city earned this nickname owing to the dominant pink colour scheme on most of its buildings. Jaipur has many historical landmarks that stand testimony to its past glory and rich cultural heritage. While getting around in the city, you'll come across many palaces, forts, gardens, and temples. One of its most popular palaces is the City Palace, which was built by the Rajput king, Sawai Jai Singh. Other important places worth visiting during your tour of this city are Jantar Mantar and Amer Fort.
