India tour
If you wanna to India tour then never forget to see Taj Mahal
Agra Monument to Love, Mughal Architecture
1st Ajuba in the world

The Taj Mahal attracts above three million visitors a year, all deeply moved by its romance and beauty and the amazing skills of 17th century Mughal craftsmen.
Located on the bank of the Yamuna river, three km south of Agra, the Taj Mahal took 22 years to complete at a cost of trillions of dollars by today’s currency. Twenty thousand men and over 1000 elephants were working on the project, using material from India and Asia, as far as China and Afghanistan.
The Taj Mahal was declared a World Heritage site in 1983 and measures are in place to protect it from pollution. Tourist coaches and cars are kept well away from the gate and access is on foot or by electric vehicle.
Taj Mahal, Agra Monument to Love
India’s top World Heritage site was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan as a mausoleum for his favourite wife, Mumtaz begum, who died aged 38, giving birth to their 14th child. She had never left her husband’s side, even during his military campaigns, and the inconsolable Emperor promised he would build the most beautiful mausoleum ever seen.
True to his word, Emperor Shah Jahan set to work with his first architect to design the world’s most celebrated monument to love. Later, deposed and imprisoned by his son in Agra’s red fort, the Emperor gazed from afar at the marble dome mirrored in the river, grieving until the day he died. He now rests with Mumtaz in the Taj Mahal.
Beautiful Taj MahalCovered in white marble, inlaid with precious and semi-precious stones, a stunning display of floral and geometrical patterns, Arabic calligraphy. Raised on a plinth, it is topped by a white onion dome and framed by four minarets, detached from the mausoleum to minimize damage in an earthquake.
A day is barely enough to appreciate the fine Mughal craftsmanship, from latticed marble screens to decorated archways, from pietra dura to gilded finials. Inside, visitors gaze in silence at the imperial cenotaphs placed above the actual tombs The magnificent entrance gate faces the mausoleum, some 275 meters away, while to ensure symmetry, the red sandstone mosque on the west side of the gardens is mirrored by a replica rest house to the east.
Taj Mahal Garden
Like all Mughal Emperors, Shah Jahan was fond of gardens. Laid out in classical style, the Taj Mahal Persian Gardens are said to symbolise the four rivers and garden of Paradise. Leading to the mausoleum at the far end, they are divided into four sections, a holy number in Islam, each one subdivided into 16 beds. English lawns have replaced many of the original fruit trees and shrubs but the symmetry and feeling of space remain breathtaking.
Water channels and fountains enhance this peaceful oasis, regardless of crowds, while the central pool reflects the mausoleum in all its splendour. The gardens are enclosed by red sandstone walls on three sides but open towards the river.

Why should you rent a car for travelling in Romania

February 21st, 2009 | Admin

In the last 10 years, Romania recorded a huge increase in every domain. Multinational companies invested a lot of money and built headquarters in Bucharest. People travel a lot inand out of the country and now renting private cars ( alongside of the public taxis ) is a common fact. 
Genneraly rent a car companies are hired by multinationals, so they can have confidence that their employees or VIP`s will get in time in any place without having trouble. This relation between rent a car companies and multinationals is based on peer trust.

Besides multinational companies, rent a car companies are also appealed by foreigners who come to visit
Romania. There are some rent a car companies with experienced chauffeurs with advanced studies and a guide’s license who can easily give you a dream tour of tourist attractions, cities and sites in Romania. People rather preffer instead of going on a tour with a coach and other 40 people, renting a private car and make their own itineraries.

And now…
Why should you rent a car at Bucharest’s airport? 

Bucharest has 2 airports, one for both international and domestic flights and one for domestic flights only. ( Otopeni airport and Baneasa airport)
There are no means of transport from the Otopeni airport ( situated at 11 km away from the city north entrance) except public taxis. 

A few years ago, there was a big scandal between taxi drivers, which had negative results for people ariving at the airport. Many of the taxi drivers then were forced to quit their job, and they now stay “undercover” in the airport asking everybody who come out if they need a cab. They fool everybody asking a lot more than a normal price, and they are rude and unpolite. The security aren’t capable of doing anything because they’d risk another scandal.

So, you would have two choices for an airport transfers. These guys, or the company with public transfers
with forced the old taxi drivers to resort to this. ( also with very bigh prices). Also, if you somehow manage to get in the city, public means of transport are dirty and unfriendly.

If you want to avoid any trouble contact a private Rent a car in Bucharest company and a con sedan ( or limousine at your request ) will wait for you in the VIP parking space. Also the driver will wait for you at the arrival gate with a banner with your name.
