2007-06 Agra

My wife Ingrid and I went to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal and to find out whether it is living up to its image.
Four thoughts on the journey:

  1. We have seen so many photos and footage of the Taj which created a vivid imagination.
  2. Again we experienced Mark Twain: “We travel to compare our imagination to reality”.
  3. I will never forget my emotions on the first view through the big entrance gate: just literally breathtaking and astonishing.
  4. No picture, no video can provide this emotions.
