Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Akbar had built several palaces in the Agra Fort, and his son and successor Jahangir had added to them. These comprise the Jahangiri Mahal and Akbari Mahal, both approached through a beautiful gate decorated with red sandstone and yellow dholpur stone. The palaces inside are small, made almost completely of red sandstone, very intricately carved, and with some traces of beautiful painted and incised plaster.

The Agra Fort ticket, Rs 35 per Indian adult, covers these palaces. An interesting artefact just outside the gate here is Jahangir's bath tub, shaped like a giant tea cup with rough steps on the side to climb in.

This palace inside Agra Fort is probably the most significant building inside the fort complex, and housed the women of the royal household. There’s no much evidence of that, though I thought the most significant structures are the multistoried red sandstone walls and the huge bowl used as a bath.

The Jahangir Mahal is a beautiful designed royal building that is located within the Agra (Red) Fort. It has been said that this building was constructed by a former emperor of this area for his royal wives.
The Jahangir Mahal is just one of several notable places to visit that are located within the walls of the "Red" fort.

Another of the ‘must see’ stops in Agra and understandably so. Well worth building into your itinerary.

Standing not too far from it’s more famous cousin, the Jahangir Mahal is very impressive in its own way, preceding the construction of the Taj by a century as it does. It houses Akbar’s tomb and the inlay work is as beautiful as anything you will see anywhere so cast your net wider than the place that everyone goes to visit in Agra and admire the skill of these earlier artisans.

This is the first structure you will come across once you enter the Agra Fort. The huge red sandstone building will immediately catch your attention. It looked magnificent! The intricate carvings on the walls as also in the walls and ceilings of each and every chamber and room within the mahal is jaw dropping. I loved it immensely. It takes time to see all the rooms and witness the beauty of the art but some rooms are not illuminated enough. There is a huge bath inside in the name of Jahangir. Worth a visit!

When in Agra one must visit this well preserved place as there is so much history to digest. It is well kept and to tour the area will take few hours so not to missed.
