A 4-day trip to Agra, India
The grand seat of Mughal power, best unlocked at sunrise before the day-trippers arrive.
Agra is often treated as a hurried checklist stop on the Golden Triangle, but rushing through in four midday hours strips it of its majesty. For over two centuries, this city on the Yamuna River served as the heart of the Mughal Empire, leaving behind monumental red-sandstone citadels, intricate marble inlays, and gardens calculated around symmetry. To experience Agra properly, travelers must stay overnight to catch the Taj Mahal at dawn, navigate the sprawling ramparts of Agra Fort, and cross the Yamuna to see where it all began.
