About the city:

The sight of this mansion creates sorrowing sighs and makes sun and moon shed tears from their eyes." When Shahjahan said this, he was simply praising his own wonderful creation, the Taj Mahal, for its everlasting beauty. The splendour of one of the Seven Wonders of the World still draws thousands of tourists to the city, which is well-connected through a number of regular flights to Agra.

Lying on the banks of Yamuna River, the erstwhile capital of India is also a major industrial town. As the city attracts a sizeable volume of tourists every year, one can easily find Agra flights.
