Taj Mahal, Agra: Most Famous Historical Monument of India

If you have seen the movie ‘Tevar’ (starring Arjun Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha), you would have seen the magnificent ‘Taj Mahal’ captured on the big screen. There’s also a dialogue in the movie where Arjun Kapoor says that despite the Taj Mahal being India’s most famous historical monuments and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, very few Indians have actually seen the monument, or for that matter, been to Agra. And that’s indeed true. In fact, most Indians wouldn’t even know that Agra is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.).

Nevertheless, Taj Mahal is one of the most famous structures in India and extremely popular with overseas tourists, who can be seen in full numbers here in agra, during the winter months of October and November.

Bollywood films like Tevar, Bunty Aur Babli, Yamla Pagla Deewana had scenes that were filmed near Taj Mahal / Taj Mahal Mosque in Agra.
