Agra Fort is originally a brick fort, which was held by the Hindu Sikarwar Rajputs. It was mentioned for the first time in 1080 AD when a Ghaznavide force captured it.

One of the best forts in India. Beautiful place. Audio guide explains it quite well . No need to take those annoying guides at the enttance, they just repeat the same story to everyone.

My group saw the Taj Mahal at sunrise and decided to skip our tour at Agra Fort later that day -- they made a huge mistake. The Taj Mahal is iconic, but Agra Fort was my favorite place in Agra.

Beautiful historic monument by itself, it is further enhanced by the eerie views of distant and aloof Taj Mahal and the 'mortal' in-between separating the two sites. Don't miss it!

This majestic fort of red sandstone dominating a bend in river Yamuna was constructed by the Mughals. The forts colossal double walls contain a maze of buildings which form a small city within a city .

Pritam Gagandas

Truly a majestic magical wonder. Water tank, fountains , manicured gardens , splendid carvings, pillars n windows wth engravings all done with precision in an age where there were no computers.

The fort is legendary! We were so lucky to find a very good guide as well at the gate, his name is Dinesh Gaur. He told us almost everything, you can call him on 09359921020

In Octopussy (1983) a shot of the Taj Mahal from Red Fort is used to establish the location as India. Bond is actually travelling to Udaipur, but westerners might not recognise any landmarks there. Read more

This is where “shah jahan” was prisoned by his son so he could still have a view of “taj mahal ”

A must-see and for me, much more impactful than the Taj.

I loved the emperor family quarter especially his room

Francis Cordero

Be there early. Thousands will be there every day.

Albert Wenger

Make sure to see this Fort also and not just the Taj Mahal

Viroo Mirji

Alert : the sound and light show (English version) in the night 8:30pm was quite empty and desolate. The Hindi show before this at 7:30 was well attended . The experience will be a bit boring.

Joyce Tokar

Great view of the Taj Mahal across the river . Incredible architecture and inlaid marble .

Remember to take snacks and water bottle with you. No provision of buying these things inside, and humidity might leave you asking for it.
