agra is known for its heritage and cuture. here we are not using has been. why?

Agra is known for its heritage and culture. It's in passive form.Its hindi translation is:- आगरा इसकी विरासत और संस्कृति के लिए जाना जाता है But if you use "has been" instead of "is" here.Then its hindi translation is:- आगरा इसकी विरासत और संस्कृति के लिए जाना गया है I hope, you'll get it.

Rama has been doing work... Agra has been knowing... Is second sentence possible...??? Hope you get it...
