Delhi - The strategic location of Delhi made
it the first choice of almost all the rulers that chose it to be the capital of
India for years. They also did favors to the city by leaving behind them a rich
legacy of architectural and cultural legacy, which are of interest to many. The
highlights of India's capital are Qutub Minar built in 1199 (it is about 72.5

km from Agra and is marked by an excessively ornamented gateway that leads to
the sandstone tomb crowned by beautiful and elegant marble pavilions. Akbar had
already started its construction before he dies and was completed by his son Jehangir.
An amalgamation of Hindu and Islamic style of architecture, it is said to be of
'amorphous curiosity'. On arrival check-in at hotel and overnight stay.
Day 04 Agra 
After
sumptuous breakfast proceed for tour of Agra.
Agra - Close to Delhi, Agra
is better known for Taj Mahal, the mausoleum of the Emperor Shah Jehan's beloved
Queen Mumtaz Mahal, which was built in 1631. It took 22 years, 20,000 laborers
and the best talents on the world to give shape to this monument of matchless
beauty that enshrines her memory. Luminous and chaste, this 75 metre high Taj
Mahal retains a jewel like quality and unique feature of changing its color at
sunrise and sunset, which are especially remarkable on the days of full moon and
moonless nights.
Much on the lines of Red Fort of Delhi, Emperor Akbar
built Agra Fort. It is a daunting structure with red sandstone wall that are almost
3 km in length. The focal points of the fort are Diwani-I-Am, Diwani-I-Khas and
Moti Masjid. The other monument that is worth a visit is Itmad-ud-daulah (translated
as Pillar of the State), is named after the title of Mirza Ghiyag Beg, the father
in law of Jehangir, who had earned it by proving his worth at the Mughal Court.
This tomb of Mirza was completed in 1628 and is said to be a gem of Mughal architecture.
Afternoon at leisure & overnight stay.
Day 05 Agra - Fatehpur
Sikri - Jaipur Drive 235 Km

Fatehpur Sikri - It is believed that when
Emperor Akbar came here to seek the blessings of a venerated Muslim saint, Sheikh
Salim Chisti, for an heir, he was blessed with a child who later came to be known
as Emperor Jehangir. Pleased by this, Emperor Akbar named his son after the saint
and laid foundations of this new city in 1569, as a mighty and ambitious project
to honor the saint. However, the shortage of water led to the desertion of the
city. The highlights of the place are the mosque of Salim Chisti and Panch Mahal.
On arrival check-in at hotel & overnight stay.
Day 06 Jaipur

Jaipur
- The splendid structure of City Palace of Jaipur is the curious blend of Rajput
& Mughal architectural styles while Jantar Mantar, an observatory built by
Sawai Jai Singh, the founder of Jaipur in 1728, is the best preserved one out
of the five that he built. Hawa Mahal with its honeycomb façade looks more
like a delicate screen than a palace. Then, there is Central Museum or the Albert
Hall Museum situated in the Ram Niwas Gardens that have varieties of curios that
attract the tourists like portraits of Maharajas, miniature paintings, costumes,
woodworks, brasswares, jewellery designs and types of pottery.
After
a shopping spree at Jaipur Bazaar, famous for jewellery, brassware, carvings and
textiles, you will certainly love the elephant ride to the Amber Fort, which is

Kali Temple and Jai Mandir or Hall of victory.
