Day 3 Agra

Today we left Delhi for Agra. On the way, we stopped at the Tomb of Emperor Akbar in Sikandra. It was really foggy and quite cold but still very interesting and historical. After a really long bus ride, we arrived in Agra. Right before sunset, we visited the famous Taj Mahal seeing the true beauty and detail of the monument. It was an unbelievable moment, just being there and seeing it in person. Most of us were overwhelmed with the amount of people asking for and taking photos with us. Luckily we had Amar, a local tour planner who helped guide us through crowds and acted as a caring protector. We were then shown how to inlay marble as in the Taj Mahal and where enticed to buy their products. After leaving as soon as possible, we went back to the hotel for dinner and had a disco dance party with Romeo and Amar and Robyn.
