4. A photo at the Taj Mahal

If you’re visiting Agra, there’s really no excuse for you to miss out on an Instagram-worthy picture of yourself or your crew at the Taj Mahal. This architectural masterpiece is still as immaculate today as it was when it was completed in 1653, with over twice the population of Agra visiting the mausoleum every year, this experience really is once-in-a-lifetime.
