India: Agra – Taj Mahal from the Rooftops at South Gate

And one more way to see Taj – get to shabby rooftop restaurants near the South Gate. You can marvel at the white marble domes and minarets of Taj Mahal and the beautiful red sandstone facade of the South Gate juxtaposed against the trashy urban landscape just outside the monumental complex. Also you can sip on some tea and enjoy super cheap food while reading the super funny restaurant guest book filled with super excited commentary from super budget-minded mostly Russian tourists about how super great the food was (it wasn’t).
