India features many popular tourist circuits for a tourist. The most popular of them all is the Golden Triangle circuits tour in India, which comprises of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. The term ‘Golden Triangle’

Have you travelled to India before? Whether you have or not, the Golden Triangle tour of India
is something you can never ignore. If you don’t visit this circuit, you
will not be able to feel the heartbeat of India. Such is the impact of
each of these cities and the kind of experience they create together.
Located in the northern part of India, Delhi, Agra and Jaipur are quite
well connected with one another. Depending on your travel preferences,
you may choose to travel between these cities either by train
(superfast) or by road. Going on the Golden Triangle tour is essential if you want a befitting introduction to India as a unique travel destination.
Delhi:
The national capital of India, Delhi is the first city of the Golden Triangle circuit tourism.
It’s divided into two parts – Old Delhi and New Delhi. Both these are
the two sides of the same coin. On the one hand, Old Delhi reminds of
the glorious history of the past. On the other, New Delhi presents the
best in terms of modern-day facilities, amenities and architecture. As
you start on your tour, you’ll see a vivid difference between the two – a
heady mix of the old and the new. Old Delhi is redolent with the
historical charm of the Mughal era. There are numerous historical
monuments that dot the landscape of Old Delhi across its length and
breadth. Most of the government and modern-day buildings are located in
New Delhi.
Agra:
The second city on the Golden Triangle
circuit, Agra is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh. It is the place
where the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, stands in
all its glory. If you return from India without visiting Agra and seeing
the Taj Mahal, it would be considered blasphemous. Apart from the Taj
Mahal, Agra is also home to the gigantic Agra Fort and other monuments.
Agra is easily accessible from Delhi; a road journey takes around 3
hours.
Jaipur:
The capital city of Rajasthan, Jaipur
reminds you of the splendid history of Rajput maharajas. It is famously
known as the ‘Pink City’. Multiple forts and palaces stand on the soil
of the city to tell you about the opulent lifestyle and the culture that
the Rajput kings are known for. Most famous tourist attractions in the
city include the Amer Fort, City Palace, Jal Mahal, Jaigarh Fort, Hawa Mahal, Jantar Mantar
etc. The Sound and Light Show at the Amber Fort is a good opportunity
to expand your knowledge about the Rajput kings. A stroll through
Jaipur’s local market should never be skipped because it offers a unique
experience for travellers. In the market, you can also purchase a wide
variety of souvenirs to take back home and cherish as wonderful
memories. A good rail and road network connects Jaipur with Delhi. The
most popular train between Jaipur and Delhi is the Shatabdi Express.
Whether it’s Delhi, Agra or Jaipur,
accommodation options are available in every range you may be looking
for. If you wish to be treated like a maharaja, you should plan your
stay at one of the palace hotels in Jaipur. If you are interested in the
Golden Triangle Tour of India, you should get in touch with a reputed tour operator and request them for a fully customized tour.
