- Relish breakfast at a top-rated restaurant in Agra.
- Head to the Agra Fort. Erected by Emperor Akbar in 1565 CE, this majestic fort is built of striking red sandstone. Its well-designed buildings are a great combination of Hindu and Central Asian architectural panaches. It has many elegant mosques, courtyards, and private chambers that speak of the tales of the greatness of the Mughal Empire.

- Stop for lunch at one of Agra's famous local restaurants.
