Day 1: Delhi – A Confluence of Ages
Start your trip in Delhi, a city where centuries collide. Experience the hustle and bustle of Old Delhi’s tangled bazaars and the elegance of Lutyens’ New Delhi.
Highlight: Start at Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India, then take a rickshaw through the bustling lanes of Chandni Chowk. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site Red Fort and then visit India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhavan and Qutub Minar in New Delhi.
Pro tip: Savor the spicy chaats and kebabs that are the hallmark of Delhi's street food.
Day 2: Agra - Whispers of eternal love
Next, travel to Agra, home of the iconic Taj Mahal. More than a monument, the Taj is a timeless ode to love carved in white marble.
Highlights: Watch the sunrise at the Taj Mahal - a moment etched in gold. Explore the Agra Fort, where Mughal royalty once ruled, and visit Mehtab Bagh for panoramic river views.
Unique experience: Try a traditional Mughlai thali for lunch and watch artisans create marble inlay designs.
Day 3: Jaipur - The royal charm of the Pink City
Drive to Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, where royal heritage meets desert dreams.
Highlights: Climb the Amer Fort on an elephant ride or jeep and marvel at the blend of Hindu and Mughal styles. Visit the City Palace, Jantar Mantar (astronomical observatory) and the Hawa Mahal – a beehive-like façade steeped in legends.
Cultural tips: Attend a puppet show or folk dance in the evening and shop for handicrafts at Johri Bazaar.
Day 4: Return via Delhi – Reflection and Farewell
End your trip with a scenic drive back to Delhi. If time permits, stop at Fatehpur Sikri, a red sandstone ghost town built by Emperor Akbar, on the way.

The Night It Was Read
She was excited. Her hair up in rolos as she slid on the boots her mother had only let her borrow for this special occasion. At fifteen, she had just begun to branch out–making friends, building a life that was all her own. Her best friend, Ruth, had just moved to Oregon, and her absence was a new kind of desperation–one that longed for intimacy and made her reach for new people, new experiences. The phone rang. “Ma! Pick up–pick up! I’m taking off the pinchos! These stupid rolos won’t come off!” She stomped around her room, arms twisted overhead, tugging at her hair in every direction. From the kitchen, her mother shouted, “He’s coming up now. Apúrate and put on your coat. It’s cold and rainy. Llévate la sombrilla–and don’t lose this one. You always lose the nice umbrellas and then-” “Yessss, Ma! Ya–ya! I got it. Can you open the door, please?!” At that moment, a knock traveled through the apartment. Her mother opened the door. From the bedroom, Allie heard the high, bright voice her mother saved for people from church. Finally, her hair came free. She slid on the brown leather jacket her cousin Farrah had given her before moving into her own apartment. She loved it when Farrah gave her things and used them only for special occasions. “Alexandra! ¿Ya?” her mother called from the door. Allie stepped out and walked toward the door. “Ya. I’m ready.” She smiled shyly. “Hola, Rafael. Sorry, I took so long.”

This itinerary sounds amazing! I've always wanted to explore the Golden Triangle. I'm curious, though. How do you think one could make the most of the limited time at each place? Like, should we focus on the main attractions or try to squeeze in some off-the-beaten-path spots too? Also, I'm wondering about the logistics. Is it better to book everything in advance or just play it by ear once we're there? And those cultural tips in Jaipur sound great. Any idea where to find the best puppet shows or folk dances?
