On this Roman Catholic Cemetery Tour, you'll discover the history of Agra's oldest cemetery and why it's called the Red Taj Mahal.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Agra to start our journey to the Roman Catholic Cemetery, a place that houses the remains of several Europeans who fell in love with the city and ended their lives there.

We'll start the tour by walking through the cemetery's narrow rows and learning about its history since it was founded by Armenian Christians around 1600. You'll see the characteristics of Mongolian architecture in its mausoleums. However, it also has a Christian influence in many of its details - a unique blend of styles!

Of course, we'll tell you the most famous story of love and pain in the cemetery, which is the protagonist of the most emblematic funerary construction of this place, the so-called Red Taj Mahal. A replica of the original made of reddish sand that gives it an undeniable mystique.

After a 2-hour visit to the Roman Catholic Cemetery, we'll say our goodbyes as we return to your hotel.
