Up and out of the hotel by 5 am to catch the train to Agra. It was a nice, fast train for the 2 hour trip. We arrived and headed off to Agra Fort. We had a guided tour of the fort and and it was very interesting. From the fort we had our first glimpse of the Taj Mahal. Beautiful even from that distance.
We then visited a carpet place that made handmade carpets. The average carpet takes six months to make depending on the size. It was interesting to see how they are made and all the pretty designs. We then headed off to our hotel to relax before heading out to see the Taj Mahal. It was breath taking to see the Taj Mahal as it is more beautiful than we ever expected it to be. It was a dream come true to see it and spend time in such a beautiful setting.
We returned to the hotel to change for dinner and then took a tuk-tuk to a nearby restaurant.
