Kalakriti, basically a marble inlay workshop, is an amazing place with astonishing marble art and craft. It has other sections as well where one can look out for clothes, wood, marble in wood and jewelery.
They also run a very beautiful dance drama show in the evening, which is based on the life of Shahjehan and Mumtaj. The emperor who made Taj Mahal in the memory of his beloved queen Mumtaj Mahal. This show is replete with Dolby sound, laser lights and great dances.

What to buy: Basic cottage industry of Agra is Marble inlay, also called "Pietra Dura". But one should be aware of fake n counterfeit items as well. The shops near world famous Taj Mahal indulge in selling fake marble inlay, so it is best to avoid them. Usually, they would lure tourists in on the pretext of water or cheap post cards or even cheap marble inlay. But it is really fake that's why it is cheap.

Agra is also known for its leather industry.

What to pay: At Kalakriti the price is fixed. The kind of efforts and semi-precious stones that these guys put into marble makes it bit expansive. But it is worth its price. It is priceless and timeless. Exact art of Taj Mahal can be seen here.
