Travel Diary at Golden Triangle Tour
As it was my second trip to India, I thought about doing a Golden Triangle Tour which gives you the opportunity to visit three historical cities of India: Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. The trip to the golden triangle of India took around 6 days to complete. Golden Triangle is the amazing tour that left me speechless.
I and my children arrived at Delhi International Airport from France on May 3, 2010, where a representative accompanied us and we were transferred to the hotel that we had booked in advance. After having a little snack and resting, overnight I moved for the overnight sightseeing trip to Delhi, which will cover India Gate, Paliament House, Connaught Place; We also enjoy shopping at Janpath Market, where we find exclusive handicrafts. After enjoying myself, I returned to my hotel room for the night and dinner.
The next day, we traveled to the most important historical places in the capital city, Delhi. I visited Jama Masjid, Red Fort, Chandni Chowk, etc. Jama Masjid is the holiest place for Muslims and is the largest mosque in the entire country. After seeing these historical places, we will go to visit Akshardham Temple, near which we had also seen the village that was established for the 2010 Commonwealth Games.
The next day in the morning I drove to Jaipur. After arrival, I checked into the hotel that had been booked for me in advance. Free afternoon. The next day, I traveled to Amber Fort, which was the old state capital. After visiting Amber Fort, I visited Sheesh Mahal which is known to be the special attraction of Jaipur. The city of Jaipur has been named as ‘Pink City’ through the Hawa Mahal, which is pink in color.
After experiencing the exotic beauty of Jaipur, we will travel to Agra. So the next day in the morning, we will drive to Agra, en route visiting Fatehpur Sikri as it is only 40 kilometers from Agra and was established by Emperor Akbar in 1569. There are also many such elegant monuments as Jama Masjid, Tomb of Salim Chisti, Panch Mahal. etc.
The next day, we will experience the astonishing beauty of the Taj Mahal, the ‘Seventh Wonder of the World’, established by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in 1630 for his wife, Queen Mumtaz. Later, we will visit Agra Fort and Itmad-ud-Daullah Tomb, which was established by Empress Noorjehan in memory of her father. During the afternoon, after having lunch, we will drive to Delhi.
