Agra Fort
Near the Taj Mahal Gardens stands the Red Fort of Agra, an important 16th-century Mughal monument. This majestic red sandstone fortress has 2.5 km of walls and houses the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It includes many fairy-tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Palace built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas; and two very beautiful mosques.
Historic Mosque City of Bagerhat
Located on the outskirts of Bagherhat, at the confluence of the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers, this ancient city, originally named Khalifatabad, was founded in the 15th century by the Turkish general Ulugh Khan Jahan. The city's infrastructure shows a fairly high level of technology, with many mosques and early Islamic monuments, many of which are made of brick.
