No ! Dont worry it's far too high above the Qtub Minar. But the Moghul monuments here are superb.

We set out this morning at 0830 hrs. The drive through the country side was very interesting. What with tractors used as transport, camel driven carts , etc, etc
We arrived Agra and went into the Agra Fort which was the Moghul Capital of the empire. The fort was started in the year 1000 + and did not come to it's present stage until the 1400's. From the Agra Fort we could see the Taj Mahal in the distace. Through the perpetual haze it looked like a dream ... like something out of the Arabian Nights.
And the Taj itself ? It was my third time and I appreciated it's beauty more than ever.
We just had dinner in a fancy kind of restaurant ... mutton Korma, Hyderabadi Biriyani, Butter Naan, Garlic Naan and a beer and Val had a Lime Soda.
