DAY-XVI: Agra City Events

I was quite successful in saving some energy since the day before thinking that will try to do something new with our Nanos. But when I came out of my room, the harsh daylight just disappointed me. And the next thought was, 'will I be able to take these cars as close as possible of Taj!'.

Tajmahal was not in our landmark list because the entry is restricted (read vehicular). Still the other side of Yamuna was in mind.

Dayal Bagh, Sikandra Fort and Red Fort was our landmark points.

Dayal Bagh...

Dayal Bagh houses the Temple and Samadhi of 'Swamiji Maharaj', founder of 'Radha Swami'. No photography is allowed inside it but you can able to see the same in the backdrop in the first photograph.

Sikandra...

Don't know how I missed this place earlier, wanted to do a quick shoot-out of this but the time was restricted as well as Sun God was also not kind enough so just to keep my heart clicked few random shots from outside. You even can feel the intensity of Sun from the photographs.

Red Fort aka Agra Fort...

When ever the name of 'Red Fort' comes, people start thinking about the Delhi one. But let me clarify you that this is the original red fort and the Delhi one was built later. I always loved the architectural style of this fort and can visit the same several times in a row.

Another story was waiting for Another story was waiting for Nano which forced us to do our lunch at 6.00 in the evening. But it need a dedicated post, so please bear with me. Hope to unveil the story in a day or two... :)
