EVERYTHING TO SEE in Agra BEYOND the Taj Mahal | Agra, India
During my second day in Agra we headed out to see everything beyond the Taj Mahal. From the Baby Taj to Agra Fort, there is so much more to see in Agra!

MY FILM MAKING KIT ►
Our first stop of the day was the Baby Taj also known as the Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah. The tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah is often regarded as a draft of the Tāj Mahal. It is a beautiful building and place most people skip when visiting Agra.
Next we headed to the Mehtab Bagh which is also known as the royal gardens. From here you get some of the best views of the Taj Mahal. Sunrise and sunset are the best times to visit the gardens.
The last site on our tour was Agra Fort, it was the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty till 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. The Agra fort is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Agra Fort is a wall city with many palaces within it.
To end our tour we headed to The Master Chef restaurant to try some Petha. This sweet is famous in Agra. It's a translucent soft candy. usually rectangular or cylindrical, it is made from the ash gourd vegetable. It's extremely hard and sweet!
This is really everything you must see beyond the Taj Mahal. Most people only visit Agra for a day but I recommend you spend two nights to be able to see all the main sites and the Taj Mahal.

Places To Visit In Agra | Where To Go Other Than Taj Mahal | DesiGirl Traveller
In this video, I have explored several monuments of Agra. We all know that Taj Mahal (one of the world’s wonders) is in Agra and many people come to the city to witness this beauty. However, the beauty of Agra city is not just limited to Taj Mahal. There’s a lot to explore in this city. I have visited a few of the beautiful monuments and forts in Agra including Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Fatehpuri Masjid, Mehtab Bagh etc. Everyone knows about Taj Mahal. It doesn’t need an introduction. We know that this monument is one amongst the World’s Wonders, one amongst the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, a legend of eternal love of an Emperor for his favourite Queen. Well, Taj Mahal has distinctions much beyond just these. Therefore, it surely deserves your visit once and more.
.
Agra Fort is another monument which you must visit when you are in Agra. This fort was built in the year 1573 by the king Akbar - one of the greatest Mughal Emperors. It is said that in-total 4000 workers worked for 8 years to complete the construction of this fort. This fort was built with an idea to make it the main residence of the Mughals. The architecture of Agra Fort which is also known as Red Fort of Agra is simply brilliant. This fort houses many impressive structures inside it including Khas Mahal, Jahangir Mahal, Diwan-e-Aaam, Diwan-e-Khaas, Moti Masjid, Machchhi Bhawan and a lot more. This fort is just 2.5 kilometers away from the Taj Mahal and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
.
Other than Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, Fatehpuri Masjid and Mehtab Bagh are the few places where tourist can visit in Agra. So, guys, that was all from my trip to Agra. I have done a few other videos on Agra, putting the links below. I hope you enjoy this video. Keep spreading love and share your travel stories with me. Loads of Love.

Agra Tourist Places | Best Places to visit in Agra
The tourist places in Agra are second to none.
Agra Ka Taj Mahal
It houses one of the seven wonders of the world, Taj Mahal and even has two other unesco world heritage sites.
So here is what I visited in Agra :-
1) TAJ MAHAL -
Words can not express it's beauty, one has to visit Taj Mahal to admire this monument of love.
Taj Mahal is closed during Friday's and opens from sunrise to sunset.
Foreign nationals fees is ₹ 1100/- and if one wants to visit the mausoleum he has to pay a additional fee of ₹200/-
I feel one should visit the Taj Mahal in the morning to avoid the rush.
One needs to hop on a Electric tuk tuk from the car parking area, charges are ₹10/- per person.
Shoe covers are also needed which will cost ₹10/-
Bag packs or any other carry bags are not allowed inside the Taj Mahal.
Regular Entry Fees for Indians ₹50
Location :-
2) AGRA FORT -
It's the residence of the Mughal Empire, it houses Sheesh Mahal, Akbar Mahal, diwan E Aam and a masque.
This red sandstone fort was even ruled by the Maratha Empire before coming under the British Empire.
Entry Fees for Indians ₹40
Location :-
3) FETHPUR SIKRI -
A town made by mughal emperor Akbar on the outskirts of Agra, it acted as it's second capital.
It houses a dargah of sufi saint Salim Chishti.
One has to park his car at the designated govt car parking at ₹100/- for visiting Fethpur Sikri.
There is a CNG bus that takes you to the fort for ₹10/- per person.
Entry Fees for indians ₹50
Location :-
4) AGRA SHOE MARKET -
Agra is the biggest footwear manufacturing hub in India. So one can shop for surplus goods from Sadar Bazaar and buy leather footwear at extremely reasonable prices.
Do watch my dedicated agra shoe shopping for reference.
5) AGRA STREET FOOD -
One can not miss Agra street food if one visits the Taj City.
I recommend you to savour Bedhai Puri, Alu Tikki Chat and Petha during your visit.
Do watch my dedicated agra street food for reference.

AGRA CITY TOUR, INDIA ????????
There's a lot more to Agra than just the Taj Mahal, and in this video I aim to delve further into what else the city has to offer. I begin at the well preserved Agra Fort, and continue on towards the chaotic yet vibrant backstreets surrounding the stunning Jama Masjid mosque, known as Kinari Bazaar. I finish the video off with a sunset trip to Itmad-ud-Daula, also nicknamed the 'Baby Taj'.

AGRA INDIA | Where To Go OTHER THAN Taj Mahal
On our last day in Agra we decided to check out other things to do that isn't the Taj! One of them is stunning and offers amazing views over the city, Definitely a must do when in Agra.
*** Agra Fort is a historical fort in the city of Agra in India. It was the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. Before capture by the British, the last Indian rulers to have occupied it were the Marathas. It had been used by the early mughal rulers. The Fort stands on an ancient site and was traditionally known as Badalgarh. It was captured by Ghaznavi for some time but in the 15th century A.D. the Chauhan Rajputs occupied it. Soon after, Agra assumed the status of capital when Sikandar Lodi (A.D. 1487-1517) shifted his capital from Delhi and constructed a few buildings in the pre-existing Fort at Agra. After the first battle of Panipat (A.D. 1526) Mughals captured the fort and ruled from it. In A.D. 1530, Humayun was crowned in it. The Fort got its present appearance during the reign of Akbar (A.D. 1556-1605) ***

Our visit Agra travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including home cooked food, top attractions, fascinating temples and mausoleums and the city by day and sunset. We also cover off-the-beaten-path activities you won't find in a typical Agra tourism brochure, Agra city tour or Agra itinerary.
Agra City Guide | Taj Mahal Travel Video in Uttar Pradesh, India Video Transcript:
Well good morning good morning. Today we are in Agra (आगरा). How excited are you? Super excited. I mean 'hey guess what' there is a little kind of tiny attraction here we might be visiting. Maybe the Taj Mahal (ताजमहल). The Taj Mahal (ताजमहल) is actually closed on Fridays and we didn't realize that until we got here. So we can't visit today but instead we're going to visit Agra Fort (आगरा का किला). Yeah. And maybe the Baby Taj Mahal. Yeah, and the good news is that I've actually been to Agra (آگرہ) before and I've been to Agra Fort (आगरा का किला) and it is one of the most impressive I've ever visited in India. If this fort was outside of Agra (आगरा) it would be a standalone attraction in another city. So we're going to go check that out today and maybe check out the Taj from across the river. And then we have to buy tickets for the Taj. Right so busy day actually. Let's begin.
Agra Fort (आगरा का किला) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that draws big numbers, especially on a Friday when the Taj is closed. Admission to Agra Fort (आगरा का किला) is through the Amar Singh Gate, which is the south gate. Outside the gates you’ll find guides offering their services, so that’s something you can keep in mind if you’re looking to learn about the fort’s history and architecture.
So we've been getting all of these like teaser views of the Taj. Last night we had it during dinner and today we have this. And I think we're going to get one more vantage point later on in the day. And then finally tomorrow we actually visit it.
Once you walk through a series of gates, you’ll find yourself in a giant complex of marble palaces, inner courtyards and gardens, complete with wild monkeys running along the fort’s walls.
You also get some pretty cool views of the Taj Mahal (ताजमहल) off in the distance - but we’ll show you an even better lookout point later in this video.
The Taj Mahal (ताजमहल) was built by Shah Jahan as a memorial for his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died giving birth to their 14th child in 1631. He wrote that the beauty of the structure made “the sun and the moon shed tears from their eyes”, and while I may not have shed a tear, it’s a sight that did not disappoint.
So we made it to the Baby Taj Mahal (Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah - اعتماد الدولہ کا مقبر).
So our last stop of the day is the Mehtab Gardens (मेहताब बाग़ - مہتاب باغ,) which are directly behind the Taj Mahal (ताजमहल) so you get some pretty cool views.
so that is a wrap from Agra (आगरा).
This is part of our Travel in India video series showcasing Indian food, Indian culture and Indian cuisine.

I also covered some of the food joints in Agra, which has been shown in a separate video.
Within the 6 day time frame, i tried covering as much as possible, but i am sure there is much more to Agra than what has been shown in this video.
Given below is a list of Mausoleums and monuments i visited during 6 day trip in Agra:
1.Taj Mahal: Most popular tourist destination of Agra, lacs of visitors travel here every day. This Mausoleum was built by Mughal emperor Shah jahan in memory of his wife- Mumtaz Mahal.
Taj Mahal closed day: Friday.
2. Agra fort: It was residence of Mughal emperors until the Mughal capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi in 1638. Also called as Lal Qila, It is about 3 kms from Taj Mahal. It was made by Akbar in its present state, construction was completed in 1573. Agra fort is the place where Mughal emperor Shah jahan was put under house arrest by his son Aurangzeb during 1658 to 1666.
3. Guru Ka Tal Gurudwara: Dedicated to 9th Sikh Guru: Guru Tegh Bahadur ji. This is the place from where the Guru offered voluntary arrest to Aurangzeb. Water of Agra is salty but water of Gurudwara is sweet by the blessings of Guru. Langar in the Gurudwara is served 24 hours.
Distance from Agra cantt: 11 kms.
Distance from Sikandra: 2 kms
4. Sikandra: It is the Mausoleum of Mughal emperor Akbar. Construction of this tomb was completed by Akbar’s son - Jahangir between 1605 and 1613. Sikandra is name of the place, while the tomb is called - Akbar’s tomb.

Distance from taj Mahal: 45 kms, takes about 2 hours to travel on taxi.
Suggestion: Take a ASI guide along, who is available near ticket counter, you will not get officla guide at Buland Darwaza. There fee is about Rs 450 but it’s worth it.

6. Sri Mankameshwar Temple: One of the ancient temples devoted to Lord shiva, Temple is situated at Rawatpara near Agra fort railway station. Lord Shiva wished Darshana of lord Krishna in child form for which he stayed here at this place.
7. Tomb of Itmad-Ud-Daulah: This is the tomb was commissioned by Nur Jahan, wife of Jahangir for her father Mirza Ghiyas Beg .Built during 1622-1628 A.D, sometimes also called as Baby Taj.
Distance from Agra cantt: 9 kms.
Distance from Taj Mahal: 5 kms
8. Kalakriti: Theatre show about making of Taj Mahal, why it was built. Interesting to watch, if you love theatre, good performance by artists.
3 categories of tickets: Rs 1200, Rs 1500, Rs 1800.
Show timings: 7.45 pm to 8 pm, can be heard in multiple languages by use of ear phones, state of the art theatre experience at Agra. In particular i liked the small Taj that was shown towards the end of the program.

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

Battery buses are run Agra Development Authority to reach the ticket counter. Ticket for entry is Rs 50 & Rs 200 for Mausoleum.
You can buy shoe covers before entering as shoes need to be covered if you are going to Mausoleum. There is a Taj museum also where marbles used in Taj Mahal's construction and many other things are displayed.

INDIA: EXPLORING AGRA'S fascinating & colourful KINARI BAZAAR
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go to the busy city of Agra in India and let's walk around the narrow streets behind Jama Masjid which are a crazy maze of overcrowded lanes bursting with colourful markets. There are a number of different bazaars here, each specialising in different wares, but the area is generally known as Kinari Bazaar as many of the lanes fan out from Kinari Bazaar Rd. You’ll find clothing, shoes, fabrics, jewellery, spices, marble work, snack stalls and what seems like 20 million other people.
Amazingly, there is somehow room for buffaloes and even the odd working elephant to squeeze their way through the crowds. Even if you’re not buying anything, just walking the streets is an experience in itself.
