6:30 Departure to Agra

After breakfast Maharaja by the hotel. Extremely expensive, the price for 3 toast is 120 rupees. It is better to ask the driver to stop at the Dhaba and eat something local, or the day before to prepare a toast with jam

to find us to Agra, 3 hours, a good way though a lot of traffic to be "not to trust anyone"

the driver three times repeated, to trust no one and watch toerbki

after stopping the car comes to us a young man with a badge, explains that is designated by the government to tell us that you should not trust anyone, watch and handbag thieves. Immediately, we say that we do not need help, but he notes that nothing and only wants to inform, to be careful. After a while, but suggests that perhaps we could use a guide. Cheap and saves us 2 hours waiting in the queue. We refuse.

The road to cash is 10 minutes walking distance. Along the way, we get several offers a lift from the owners of camels, rickshaws, and teams with a donkey. We refuse.

At checkout, it appears that foreigners have a separate queue, at which there is quite a queue. Probably it would tip "guide." After buying a ticket there are successive advisors saying that the ticket should we have a bottle of water, but generally we were unable to determine where it receives a bottle.

Rapid screening and enter into the Taj Mahal. There are also guides, but already licensed. We do not use the service.

It is quite crowded, because it is Sunday and immediately after Diwalii, so many people have an extended weekend.

We visit the Taj Mahal, we do some photos. Queuing for the measure is quite long, but it goes fast. Overall, the interior is worth seeing, but the view from outside is much more impressive.

We go back to the car. There are no longer offers guides, but children who want to sell a miniature Taj Mahal. Price is the 10th But you better not try to stop, because it turns out that it was about 10 euro). Of course, you can still negotiate.

With small problems we are able to leave the garage and drive to Agra Fort. The building is impressive. The interior is also a good view of the Taj Mahal.

Then go to the Tomb of Itmad-ud-Daula. Rówież very interesting building, but we are here mainly interested in walking and playing with monkeys.

The return journey takes more than 4 hours due to the piston and early nightfall. Driving at night is already super extreme sports. The driver incorporates a long lamp, mirror sets, not to light it come to resent the other and go:) Fortunately, we come back without any adventure, and we waited for a good vegetarian dinner.
