Also known as the Mini Taj Mahal. This site is well worth visiting. You must have cell phone reception the only way to buy tickets is via cell phone now. There are guides inside that will show you around for a tip. The inside is impressive but neglected, on a good sunny day it's a great photo opportunity. All-in maybe 45 minutes tour.…

We visited this sight and had difficulty purchasing the ticket because we didn’t have cell phone connection. You must buy online and provide Passport for ID. Be aware of staff pretending to help guide you then wanting payment. Was interesting trip and I’d recommend going.

The last Mughal king Bahadur Shah Zafar hid there after the 1857 uprising. There are many tunnels running under the building leading out from the monument. There are other beautiful buildings around it which are also worth a visit.

The Tomb is in central Delhi. It is large beautiful building set in formal gardens. The site is very peaceful compared with chaos of the streets just outside. A visit is definitely recommended if you are sightseeing around Delhi. There is a relatively short walk from the main entrance through the gardens to some steep steps up to the first level of the main building. From here you can get a close up look at the design and intricate work that has been put into the building.…
