Flag raised around site of the Taj Mahal (4)
I believe the answer is:
agra
'site of the taj mahal' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'flag raised around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates a hidden word.
'AGRA' can be found hidden inside 'flag raised'.
(Other definitions for agra that I've seen before include "City in India" , "Eastern city" , "Indian masterpiece" , "Foreign city" , "includes Taj Mahal" .)
