Well, this is a subjective question. But I will give you the places which will help you to get a feel of Agra. 1) Tajmahal - Without a doubt the most famous monument in the world. 2) Agra Fort - The second most famous monument in Agra, this fort offers a great view of Tajmahal. It is said that the fort was built by a man whom the Tajmahal was built for. 3) Fatehpur Sikri - This city was built by the Mughal emperor Akbar when he was just 16 to house his new bride. Remnants of this city can still be seen but it is not as breathtaking as they must have been in the past. 4) Agra Fort Railway Station - The main railway station in Agra, this station is next to the Agra fort and is worth a visit. 5) Itmad-ud-daulah - The tomb of the mad king's (Emperor Shah Jahan) favourite wife. 6) Tomb of its imam - The tomb of a Sufi saint who was a great friend of Emperor Akbar. 7) Akbar's Tomb - The resting place of the greatest Mughal Emperor of all time. 8) Nahargarh Fort - A small fort built by Emperor Akbar's grandson. 9) Ram Bagh - A garden which was the site of the marriage of Emperor Akbar.

Agra, a city in northern India, is renowned for its historical and architectural marvels, most notably the iconic Taj Mahal. Here are the top 9 places to visit in Agra:
  1. Taj Mahal: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Taj Mahal is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a symbol of eternal love. This white marble mausoleum, built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal, is a must-visit attraction.
  2. Agra Fort: Another UNESCO World Heritage Site, Agra Fort is a massive red sandstone fort complex that served as the main residence of the Mughal emperors until 1638. It offers stunning views of the Taj Mahal and houses various palaces and mosques.
  3. Fatehpur Sikri: Located just outside Agra, Fatehpur Sikri is a well-preserved ghost town and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was once the capital of the Mughal Empire but was abandoned due to a lack of water. The site showcases impressive Mughal architecture and is a fascinating historical site to explore.
  4. Itmad-ud-Daulah's Tomb (Baby Taj): Often referred to as the "Baby Taj," this tomb is a beautiful marble mausoleum that predates the Taj Mahal. Itmad-ud-Daulah's Tomb is known for its intricate marble inlay work and serene ambiance.
