Same Day Tajmahal Tour Package

06:00 AM: Departure from Delhi

Delhi has been the center of any action at all times. Delhi, where a empire rose and plummeted ago the dawn of history; where citadels of emperors emerged and disappeared a city of inexplicable eternity whose old spoils herald a majestic and imperial past and whose current pulsates vibrantly with the ever flowing life of India. Jama Masjid The historically Purana Qila, which has stood witness to Delhi's rejuvenation, terms of anarchy, and the boom & descent of empires, brings alive history of the capital.

Mathura is a holy mythological town located on the banks of the river Yamuna. According to the mythological history of Mathura or Brajbhoomi is famous as a birthplace of Lord Krishna. The Bhakti cult inspired the resurgence of Hindu movement. The Hindu rulers were instrumental in building up temples, river front ghats and finally revived the legend of Lord Krishna.

On this earth, the place known as Vrndavan in the district of Mathura, ninety miles southeast of Delhi, is a replica of that supreme Goloka Vrndavana in the spiritual sky. Place of pilgrimage because Krishna sported in it, and many devotees still linger there in ecstasy in search of Krishna and His childhood associates. The Brahma-samhita (5.38) confirms that those devotees whose eyes are anointed with the pulp of love always see the eternal form of Shyamasundar within their hearts.In Vrndavana the effulgent ground is fashioned with many very wonderful colourful cintamani jewels, the trees and vines are full of blissful spiritual fruits and flowers, the birds make a great tumult by reciting the hymns of the Sama Veda, and the lakes and streams are filled with transcendental nectar. May my heart meditate on Vrndavana in this way. Vrndavana is illuminated by numberless moons of spiritual bliss. It is cooled by the sweet nectar of spiritual love and it is filled with desire trees and many hosts of madly cooing birds. Whose heart will not run to Sri Sri Radha-Krsna, who enjoy eternal transcendental pastimes in that Vrindavan.

Welcome to Sikandra, a supurb of Agra, only 13 km. from the Agra Fort, the last resting place of the Mughal emperor Akbar.
