The essence of the intricate marble work on the walls of the monument and the cladding of red color on the surrounding complexes of the Taj Mahal reflects a typical Mughal architectural style.

Agra Fort is another iconic fort in the city that has its boundaries spread over 2 kilometers. The massive fort was constructed when Agra was the capital of the Mughals.
