- Fatehpur Sikri - In this 3-hour special walk we explore the city of Fatehpur Sikri. Commissioned by King Akbar, the city was a dedication to the Pir of Akbar Salim Chishti, who resided in the village of Sikri. The city of Fatehpur is no less than a palace full of magic and equally mysterious is the reason why it was deserted. From having the biggest doorway of the world to the multi pillared hall of religious debates, the city of Sikri has much to see and as much to hear. In this walk, we cover the city complex and also visit the sites around the complex that are equally historic.

Agra is renowned primarily for its major sectors like the shoe-making industry, jewel crafting sector, and the tourism market, among others. Their exports reach global frontiers. Besides these, several smaller and traditional trades such as kite production, thread making, wooden utensil manufacturing, and zardozi crafts are prevalent. These have been maintained for generations by ancient families residing in Agra. As one traverses the antique markets of Agra, it is not unusual to stumble upon petite shops specializing in kite manufacture, thread creation, zardozi artistry, and marble craft. Yet, upon stepping inside these establishments, one discovers expansive workshops where the workers ply their trade. As we navigate through these areas, we’ll uncover the functioning of these quiet, small-scale factories that have been the city’s backbone for many generations. Here, visitors will have the chance to witness the swift craftsmanship and wide range of skills on display.
