You must have visited the two landmarks that demand absolute attention in the city of Agra. You would have seen the perfection of the Taj Mahal and walked the length and breadth of beautiful interiors of Agra fort. This time you would deeply know about something else, apart from the Mughal architectural beauty , this place is famous for a mouthwatering thing; the perfect Agra petha. One must have listen from their friends and relatives narrating the accounts of delicious petha.
If you as a person love sweets or have a genuine sweet tooth , you would definitely love the famous petha. Agra provides you with variety of pethas , ranging with different colors and syrups. I myself hail from Agra and my favorite shop for petha is Panchi petha. Its a very famous shop and the man who started this legacy was Seth Pancham Lal Goyal who started this business seventy years ago at the age of 24. The trip to Agra is incomplete without tasting all the varieties of Pethas . The main varieties of Petha are kesar petha , angoori petha ,choclate petha , paan petha , coconut petha and the list goes on…
The best shop other than Panchi Petha is Gopaldas and Munna Lal Petha Wale. Panchi peta is a game changer in this business and alone have 25 variants of petha and have outlets across the country. The petha of Agra is so delicious and mouthwatering and for all these reasons is safe to say that after Taj Mahal , the petha of Agra makes it a famous place.
