Amazing complex, built by the Mughal Empire where today you can see the inside (mostly now stripped of precious things), plus a lovely tea room and a small museum.

An absolutley ginormous collection that could do with a little organisation, but there are some real germs to be spotted here too.

Fascinating place, a temple dedicated to the Apis bull, where they were interred after dying.

Crazy! Perhaps even more mental than the ones at Giza, here you can see an earlier attempt which failed a bit when the angle was too steep, so they just carried on with a narrower angle!

A totally beautiful park - make sure you go for sunset as the view is amazing! We liked to pop here to eat a lunch on the go whenever possible.
