The Taj Mahal

Tuesday was an early start to catch the train to Agra. The Bhopal Radjhani Express got me into Agra before 9:00 and then it was a short auto-rickshaw ride to the Taj Mahal itself.


There's not much to say about the Taj Mahal - words, at least mine, can't do it justice. It is simply one of the most amazing buildings you can imagine.

Of course because of its stature it is quite popular and there are lots of people doing the tourist thing along with you. And of course, as you can see from the picture below, it is India and just outside the gates of the Taj, Indian life goes on with all its variety.
