The final trip to City of Love before we meet again

Its worth saying that sudden plans are always the memorable and the best. Planning trips for more than a day is very difficult specially when all the travellers are working in IT sectors and abroad. And finally my special friend aka my best trip partner was back to India and all of sudden we planned "chalo Agra chalte hai". Now, it was my duty to research about the journey like from where to begin, google about different packages, which places to cover.
We hired a cab for two persons which was included within the package and was the best decision in the month of November.
And then our journey began from NOIDA to  VRINDABAN(Lord Krishna's Birth place).  I would suggest you to start the journey with blessings of Lord Krishna.
We reached at around 9 am at KRISHNA'S JANMASTHAN. I would specially recommend you to not carry cameras,chains,belts. You will definitely get locker inside, but its better you already leave those inside your vehicle which we did.
After the first destination covered, we headed towards MATHURA. When I entered into our second destination, I was mesmerized with beauty i.e PREM MANDIR. Prem mandir is a must visit place which is well maintained by Jagatguru Kripalu Parishat. The gardens, the marbles, the temple were all perfect. We almost spent couple of hours clicking pictures here.

Moving towards our third destination,the  ISKCON TEMPLE where you will see a lot of bhakts all over world. I was amazed to see foreigner bhakts volunteering and chanting "Hare Rama Hare Krishna". You feel so pure by heart when you are surrounded by devotees but unfortunately we had to leave soon as we had to travel to our next destination.
  After driving for an hour, we finally reached AGRA(City of Love)  and ofcourse we are here at one of the 7 wonders TAJ MAHAL which is always overcrowded. I personally dont like to be a part of crowded place but its ok after all I never know when can I visit it again. For TAJ there is two types of tickets, one the normal one and the second the entry inside the Mahal. I believe you already know the history behind TAJ MAHAL so let me not make it more landy instead I would love to share my memories.

Day 2, starting with one of my favourite forts till date AGRA FORT. I was so refreshed seeing the interior maintenance, gardenings, beautifully structured palaces of kings and queens.You can have a clear view of TAJ MAHAL from the windows of the fort. You can visit Diwan-I-Aam, Diwan-I-Khaj, Jahangir Mahal, Moti Mahal, Shish Mahal and what not.Again not elaborating it much, let me share the pictures of forts.

   Second destination of second day of trip, ITMUD-UD-DAULAH. Another beautifull Antique, especially a mausoleum of Mirza Ghiyas Beg, father of Nur Jahan also Grandfather of Mumtaz Mahal. My friend loved its Architecture which is also known as "Jewel Box".

Last but not the least, we travelled to our final destination FATEHPUR SIKRI. So coming direct to thw point, Fatehpur sikri is itself like a campus where the main entrance gate  huge BULAND DARWAJAH to the JAMA MASZID. Also many devotees believe in SALIM CHISHTI DARGAH. Even King Akbar was blessed with three sons after worshipping as suggested by saint Salim Chishti. In Sikri, there is JODHA BAI PALACE, MARIAM PALACE, BIRBAL PALACE, PANCH MAHAL and many more. With this I share you my memories of Sikri.

I hope you loved my journey to MATHURA, VRINDABAN, AGRA and FATEHPUR SIKRI. So its possible to make trips even for two days. I hope my blog was helpful for you. Follow me for more blogs.
Thank you.
