Agra Uttar Pradesh - Agra
was as important a city in the
ancient times as Mathura. Referred
to as Agraban in ancient Hindu
scripts, Agra as it exists today
was established by a local chieftain
and was a part of the Surasena
Empire.
Agra came into limelight only
when Sikander Lodhi established
his empire in these parts and
made Agra his capital. It was
much later that the Mughal Emperor
Babar established his stronghold
in Agra. Once Agra became a part
of the Mughal Empire it embarked
on a whirlwind journey to becoming
a great Mughal architectural museum.
During the reign of Akbar, Jehangir
and Shah Jahan, Agra became an
important center of arts, crafts
and architectural glory.
Agra in Uttar Pradesh India was immortalized in the annals
of history when Emperor Shah Jahan
built the magnificent Taj Mahal
as a tribute to love, womanhood
and everlasting affection on the
banks of River Yamuna in the 17th
century.
