Agra is the city of the magnificent Taj Mahal. The story of Agra begins much earlier than the Taj. However, it finds mention in the epic Mahabharata when it was called Agrabana or Paradise. Ptolemy, the famous 2nd century AD geographer, marked it on his map of the world as Agra.

It was the Mughals who finally nurtured Agra with the finest monuments architects could design : the Taj Mahal of Shah Jahan, Red Fort of Akbar, Itmad-ud-Daulah and neighbouring Sikandra are but few of the many that spangle the city, each of which stands in mute testimony to the city's grandeur over the ages.

Agra, an educational and business centre too, is known for its craftsmen and handicrafts. Marble and soft stone inlay work, zari work, carpet and leather goods are some important traditional crafts of the city.
