Overview
Agra is home to the Taj Mahal, built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan between 1632 and 1653 as a mausoleum for his wife Mumtaz Mahal, employing over 20,000 artisans and using white Makrana marble transported from Rajasthan. The city served as the Mughal capital for over a century and contains three UNESCO World Heritage Sites within its limits — the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and Fatehpur Sikri. Agra's petha sweet, made from white pumpkin, is a unique culinary tradition dating back to the Mughal kitchens and remains a popular souvenir. Situated 1200 km from Mumbai, the journey to Agra via NH 48 via Vadodara → NH 44 via Jaipur → Bharatpur → Agra, or via NH 44 through Nagpur → Gwalior takes roughly 18-20 hours and is one of the most popular outstation routes from the city. For a hassle-free Mumbai to Agra cab journey, Miles Tours offers well-maintained sedans and SUVs with experienced drivers at transparent pricing.

Agra rose to prominence in 1504 when Sultan Sikandar Lodi made it his capital, but it reached its zenith under the Mughal emperors Babur, Akbar, and Shah Jahan from the 16th to 17th centuries. Shah Jahan's reign transformed Agra with the Taj Mahal, Moti Masjid, and extensive additions to the Red Fort before he shifted the capital to Delhi in 1648.
