The experience
The day starts with the flight from Mumbai to Delhi, and then the capital opens up one stop at a time. At the Qutub Minar you stand by a minaret often called a victory tower, on the site of Delhi's oldest fortified city, Lal Kot, founded by the Tomar Rajputs. Next comes Jama Masjid, which Shah Jahan finished between 1644 and 1656 and which served as the imperial mosque of the Mughal emperors until 1857. India Gate follows, a war memorial on the ceremonial axis of New Delhi. As the car passes Rashtrapati Bhavan, the presidential palace, you see it from the road without stopping. The last Delhi stop is the Lotus Temple, a Baháʼí House of Worship dedicated in December 1986, and from there the drive continues to Agra.
Agra is where the day gets its centre. The Taj Mahal is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the south bank of the Yamuna river, commissioned in 1632 by Shah Jahan for his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, and it holds his own tomb as well. Nearby, Agra Fort was the main residence of the Mughal emperors until 1638, when the capital moved from Agra to Delhi. Last, the Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah, a small marble "jewel box" also called the Bachcha Taj, is often regarded as a draft of the Taj Mahal, which makes a fine comparison after the big monument.
The Taj Mahal is counted among the Seven Wonders of the World and is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The trip ends with the drive back to Delhi airport for the flight to Mumbai, or a drop-off at any place in Delhi you choose.
