Abhaneri  – Abhaneri is prominent for ‘Baoris’, step wells which were invented by the natives to
harvest rain water. These tanks were used as cool places of retreat and as water reservoirs during
parched times of the year. Chand Baori is the most popular of the wells in the region, and it is one of
India’s deepest and largest. There are three ways to reach the water using the steps, which are
divided into stories. This colossal, delicately carved well is located in front of the Harshat Mata
Temple. It was a ritual to wash the hands and feet at the well before visiting the adjoining temple.
Harshat Mata Temple, dedicated to the goddess Harshat Mata, serves as the other tourist attraction
of Abhaneri. Razed during the invasion of India by Islamic rulers in the 10th century, the remains of
the temple still boast architectural and sculptural styles of ancient India. Harshat Mata is considered
to be the goddess of joy and happiness. According to myth, the goddess is always cheerful, and she
imparts her joy and happiness to the whole village.

in the late 16th century is an exhilarating experience. It a veritable fairytale city and its “ruins” are in

grandeur. Also visit the Bulund Darwaza, the largest gateway in the world.

AGRA: Two great Mughal monarchs, Akbar and Shah Jahan, transformed the little village of Agra into
a befitting second capital of the Mughal Empire – giving it the name Dar-ul-Khilafat {seat of the
Emperor}. Today a visitor to Agra is caught up in a world of contrasting edifices, of red sandstone
and white marble, narrow galleys and quaint buggies, and that irresistible charm that this favorite
city of the Mughals still retains. It is not surprising, that modern Agra still reflects its Mughal heritage
most conspicuously. A walk down the narrow bustling streets of the city will introduce the visitor to
the wafting aroma of Mughlai cuisine.

Morning sunrise view of Taj Mahal  :
TAJ MAHAL: Little needs to be said about this architectural wonder which is always the soul raison-
de-etre for every tourist’s visit to Agra. Built by Shah Jahan, the Taj is a white marble memorial to his
beautiful wife Mumtaz Mahal. This monument took 22 years to be completed and was designed, and
planned by Persian architect Ustad Isa. Apart from its stunning design balance and perfect
symmetry, the Taj is also noted particularly for its elegant domes, intricately carved screens and
some of the best inlay work ever seen.
