Agra, a medieval city situated on the banks of the river Yamuna about 200 km south-east of Delhi , is in the present-day northern state of Uttar Pradesh, India. It was founded in the year 1504 by Sultan Sikandar Lodi, the Ruler of Delhi Sultanate. After the Lodhis fell fighting to Babur, the first Mughal Emperor of India, in the First battle of Panipat fought in 1526, Agra came under the control the Mughal Empire.

Agra achieved fame as the capital of the Mughal emperors from 1526 to 1658 and remains a major tourist destination because of its many splendid Mughal-era buildings, most notably the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Fatehpur Sikri, all three of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

City excursions to other places of interest in Agra include mosques, tombs and gardens on the tour list.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
