Therefore, hordes of vacationers book flight tickets online and fly over to marvel at its beauty.

Agra Fort

Another must-visit tourist hotspot in Agra in the sprawling Agra Fort. Hailing from the 16th century, the fortress was once the primary residence of Mughal monarchs. Within the 2.5-km long walls of the fort lie numerous impressive monuments, offering an insight into the military might and lavish lifestyle of the Mughal rulers.

Agra ka Petha

If you have a sweet tooth, then do not waste any more time and book a cheap air ticket to Agra ‘cause petha, a translucent, soft candy, sold at local shops in Agra is nothing like anything you have ever tasted in your life. While there are countless vendors in the city offering the sweet delicacy, Panchhi Petha is widely famed for its varieties for the sweet. However, be certain to locate the original store as several shops with the same name have popped up on the map of the city in the past some time.

So, if you have not captured the beauty of the marvellous Taj Mahal yet, then this is when you should do it. Grab HappyEasyGo’s Bank of Baroda air ticket offer and fly over for some whale of a time.
