Golden Triangle
The cities of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur form the three main points of a route often referred to as ‘the Golden Triangle’ in India – as much for its wealth of historic monuments as its enduring popularity with visitors. The region holds the country’s most splendid forts, palaces and tombs, including the Taj Mahal, and offers a broad spectrum of different cultural experiences, reflecting India’s complex mix of religious and ethnic traditions.
Rajasthan
