Day 2 -Don’t Visit Agra on a Friday!
There wasn’t a test match here but you can’t come to India, be in a commutable distance to the Taj Mahal (Agra) and not travel to see the palace. Who knew though that on Friday’s the Taj Mahal was closed and what day did we end up in Agra… Friday! You can’t make that kind of stuff up but that was the situation we found ourselves in.
However, although we were both quite gutted about not being able to access the palace grounds, we could still see some of the palace from outside the walls and many of the restaurants advertise themselves on offering the view from their rooftops.
As a place, Agra really isn’t that special and doesn’t in all honesty, have much to offer, particularly from a tourist perspective. But asides from the palace, there is also the Red Fort which if you find yourself in Agra, is well worth a visit.
Go back to Delhi or go onto Ahmeddabad
