More Scenes of the Taj/Agra Fort

Scenes of the Taj Mahal from different locations in Agra.

Overshadowed by the Taj Mahal, the Agra Fort is magnificent in itself. Mughal rulers were based here, and at one time, the Agra Fort was the governing body of India. The Agra Fort actually reminded me quite a bit of the Red Fort in New Delhi.

The arches in Agra Fort were amazing-

Hey,

These are beautiful pictures....I am Indian and I loved going through these...I hope you left India with good memories (at least outweighing the bad ones)!
