Agra Fort and Street Markets

 
Due to a special visit from the  Chinese Prime Minister our planned excursion to the Taj Mahal was postponed until early tomorrow morning where we plan to arrive at 7:30am in order to capture this beautiful wonder during sunrise.
The team visited the magnificent Agra Fort, a walled city situated approximately 2.5km north west of the Taj Mahal.  The team had a guided tour of this UNESCO World Heritage site and caught sight of the famous Taj Mahal in the distance.  Following a brief visit to the street market in Agra centre the team have returned home ready for an early start in the morning!
