of Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India still reflect the glory
of the days of the powerful Mughals who patronized craftsmen,

Shopping for typical Agra handicrafts can be an experience
filled with wonder and beauty as you discover the wealth
of tradition that is reflected in the intricately carved
and wonderfully decorated brassware, the tiny reproductions
of the Taj Mahal in pure marble, the extensively embroidered
traditional outfits, both for men and women, the leather
products such as shoes, belts, bags, etc. and beautiful
Persian carpets and rugs.

Shopping in Agra, India is a fun experience as you
shop for lovely marble souvenirs that are delightfully
decorated with inlay work with semi-precious and precious
stones imitating the style of the pietra dura work on
the grand Taj. The 'Chikan embroidery' on clothing is
sure to steal your heart as you find bales of cloth
intricately embroidered to perfection with floral and
geometrical designs. The thread and Zari work done on
