First of all: I scanned some of my best photographies for you. This time I took pictures in Agra. It was 2005 when I photographed Agra and the famous Taj Mahal. I didn't do any changes in Photoshop. No filters. No effects.
Nikon F55
28 ~ 100 mm
f/3.5 ~ 1/5.6 G
At this time we were backpacking from Delhi to Agra, Varanasi, Nepal and China. I want to show you some pictures of each place we visited.
I remember we went to the backside of the famous Taj Mahal. Here was something like a 'sand wall'. We were sitting on it and watching the sunset.
That's me. Doing some doodles in my sketchbook
Behind the Taj Mahal were a lot of locals and only a few tourists. It was really calmed. It was a lot of fun there.
The Taj Mahal is an ivory-white marble mausoleum. It was built 1631 to 1648 by the Mughal Shah Jahan for his deceased wife Mumtaz Mahal.
Agra is located in north middle of India in the state Uttar Pradesh. The capitol New Delhi is around 206 kilometres far away. It is quite easy to get there by van. I remember we went to a busstation and there were people asking us, if we want to go to Agra by van. Unfortunately I can't remember where exactily and how expensive it was. We read it in the Lonely Planet. I remember, it was not that difficult. I checked Tripadvisor for you. Fun fact: I found a post by someone from 2005, who wrote something about hotel Sheela. I slightly remember that hotel. And we arrived our hotel at night too. Anyway, the user gives some good explanations and helpful hints. Please follow this link to Tripadvisor and check AlanJ post I meantioned.
Thanks for reading!
