India’s Golden Triangle

By India Tourism, Singapore

THE magical Golden Triangle formed by Delhi, Agra and Jaipur, is the country’s most popular tourist circuit. The Golden Triangle is so called because of the triangular shape formed by the locations of  New Delhi,  Agra  and  Rajasthan  on the map. The trips usually start in Delhi moving south to the site of  Taj Mahal  at Agra, then west, to the desert landscapes of  Rajasthan. The Golden Triangle is now a well-travelled route providing a good spectrum of the country’s different landscapes. Located at an approximate distance of 200-250 kilometers from each other, the cities provide a classic and unforgettable introduction to the country and its charms.
