Agra Fort is a sprawling red sandstone fortress completed in the 17th century, built under the Mughal Emperor Akbar. This UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases a blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural elements, with impressive structures such as the Jahangir Palace and the Sheesh Mahal, reflecting the grandeur of the Mughal era. Allocate a couple of hours to explore its expansive grounds, including the stunning views of the Taj Mahal from the fort’s ramparts. Visit early in the day to avoid the crowds and heat, and consider pairing your visit with a trip to the nearby Itimad-ud-Daulah's Tomb for a deeper insight into Mughal architecture.
