About About the place

Dakhini Darwaza is a significant historical landmark in Agra, constructed during the Mughal era by Subedars. It is one of four gates – Bareilly Darwaza, Hussaini Darwaza, Jahanabadi Darwaza, and Dakhini Darwaza – that once served as important entry points to the city. Situated in Tajganj, it's often considered a walk-by attraction rather than a destination in itself, but holds local importance and provides a connection to Agra's rich history. The gate is comparable in size to the entry gates of the Taj Mahal and is particularly popular among local residents.

There was nothing special about this speciality hotel and it was such a disappointment. The place was literally in ruins and it pinches me to see all my money goes to waste. The rooms were really dirty and unkept and the service was pathetic. I won’t recommend this to anyone and it was the worst experience.
