Tour Packages
The Golden Triangle Indias most famous route. It connects Delhi, the historic capital, Jaipur, the Pink City, and Agra, home of the Taj Mahal. This route gets its name from the fact that the cities on the map make a triangle that is almost equal on all sides. It gives you a concentrated dose of India's diverse history, from the grandeur of the Mughal Empire to the royal heritage of the Rajput kings.
This represents the pinnacle of Mughal and Rajput architecture, forming a geographic nexus of India's complex history. In Delhi, we examine the transition from the Mughal sultanate to the British Raj. In Agra, the focus shifts to the architectural precision of the 17th century, epitomized by the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal. Most travelers start their trip in Delhi, where they have to deal with the busy markets of Old Delhi and the wide, tree-lined streets of New Delhi. Then they head south to Agra.
