One of the most popular travel packages, covering three of India’s best known cities the Golden Triangle tourist circuit is a kaleidoscope that presents the Indian pageantry in its most colorful forms.

As epitomes of Indian cultural, historical and architectural heritage, the cities, rich in history and monumental splendour, have all been capitals of princely states in the past: Delhi, a historical city-cum-political capital, now a world city; Agra, one-time centre of the Mughal empire and home of the fabled Taj Mahal; and Jaipur, the pride of Rajasthan, as well as India’s first planned city. All in all, the Golden Triangle takes you on a ride where tradition straddles modernity, as none other.

Of tourist interest: India Gate, Humayun’s Tomb, Red Fort, Qutab Minar, Gandhi Memorial, Jama Masjid, Connaught Place, Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Jaipur City Palace, Jantar Mantar Observatory, Hawa Mahal (Palce of Winds), Albert Hall, Birla Temple etc.
