On this Roman Catholic Cemetery Tour, you'll discover the history of Agra's oldest cemetery and its designation as the Red Taj Mahal.
Description
At the designated time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Agra to begin our journey to the Roman Catholic Cemetery, which contains the remains of several Europeans who lived and died in the city.
The tour begins with a walk through the cemetery's narrow rows, where you will learn about its history dating back to when it was founded by Armenian Christians around 1600. You will observe Mongolian architectural characteristics in its mausoleums, alongside Christian influences that create a unique blend of styles.
We will share the most famous story of love and pain in the cemetery, linked to the most emblematic funerary construction known as the Red Taj Mahal. This structure is a replica made of reddish sand, lending it a distinct mystique.
After a 2-hour visit to the Roman Catholic Cemetery, we will conclude the tour and return you to your hotel.
