About Uttar Pradesh

Why visit Uttar Pradesh

Uttar Pradesh holds two of India’s defining experiences — the Taj Mahal in Agra and the timeless riverfront rituals of Varanasi — alongside Mughal monuments and pilgrimage towns along the Ganges.

  • Taj Mahal & Agra Fort
  • Varanasi ghats at dawn
  • Sarnath Buddhist site
  • Fatehpur Sikri

Things to do

  • Taj Mahal circuit

    Combine sunrise Taj, Agra Fort and Itmad-ud-Daulah in a focused Agra day.

  • Ganges dawn boat ride

    Float past Varanasi’s ghats as the city wakes for prayer and bathing.

  • Evening Ganga Aarti

    Witness the fire ritual at Dashashwamedh Ghat.

  • Sarnath excursion

    Visit the Buddhist site where the Buddha gave his first sermon.

How to reach

Agra is reached by road or train from Delhi (3–4 hours). Varanasi has a busy airport (VNS) with flights from Delhi and major cities.

Combining both usually means Delhi–Agra by road and a short flight or overnight train to Varanasi.

Travel tips

Expect crowds at the Taj and on Varanasi’s main ghats — early mornings are calmer.

Remove shoes at temples; photography rules vary by ghat and shrine.

Fog can delay winter flights into Varanasi — keep buffers.
