Thread: One Day trip to Agra

Hi

I will be in Agra for a day (around 11 hours), so apart from Taj Mahal and Red Fort which other places can I visit in agra before I board my train at 8.30 PM. I am not too much into shopping and really not looking forward to shop in Agra, just want to visit and see different places around. I have few more questions here:

1. How much time it takes to see and visit different parts of Taj Mahal (do we have any specific hours on ticket)
2. How much time do I need to visit Red Fort and how far it is from Taj Mahal.
3. Any special food joints or specialty of Agra (veg.)

Food joints in Agra? well its a dump to be honest and apart from the restaurants at few of the 5* hotels the rest of the city is best avoided. There is a Pizza hut in Agra where they also serve beer and a costa coffee shop right next to it and is a good place to spend some time if you don't have anything better to do.

Places to visit in Agra apart from Taj mahal and Red fort ? I dont think so. You could make a quick trip to Fatehpur sikri if you like its a must visit if you like history. I loved it
No there isint any time limit on the tickets you get for Taj and both Taj mahal and Red fort put together should not take more then 4-5 hours traveling included.

Thank You Chahal it was really useful, appreciated

Thanks for sharing this information with us. In this summer vacation i am making plan to visit Agra.

If you are going to Agra in summer time then consider visiting Bharatpur too, I am sure you will find number of rare birds and animals. Its one of my fav destination to relax myself

You mean Winters right?

Birds come in to spend the winters at Bharatpur and its a treat to see so many different types of birds there.
