Is Ram Bagh (Agra) worth visiting?

DB1st · Jul 31st, 2009, 11:02

We're planning our agenda for 3-day stay in Agra. The owner of the home stay suggests we also visit Ram Bagh. We did not find it on LP. Can anyone tell us if it is worth visiting?

Thanks!

I have not been there but just curious do you have Itmad Ud Daulah's tomb in your agenda?

Yes, we do.

We (who have never been to India and know practically next to nothing about it) planned out our set of 3-day agenda and sent it to Gardenvilla Homestay who have been known to help their guests with various things including agendas. The questions I posted in Agra threads were the additional line items that we either found very little info on the web or were not in LP.

I'll post the amended agenda in the forum shortly for comments.

Thanks!

OK I too searched google and now I realize what it is. While coming back from Itmad ud Daulah's tomb (which is a beautiful place and less crowded) you can go and view the sunset at the Taj Mahal from the Yamuna banks. On that road this garden is there. We in fact watched the sunset from this garden. It has a closing time after which they do not give you the tickets. But if that happens don't worry just keep walking on that narrow road and you would be on the banks of Yamuna.

So if you have planned for watching sunset from Yamuna then you can see this garden on the way. I reached there very late and explored it very little. But I would recommend watching the sunset from Yamuna and as this is on the way, why not.

Also you will find a lot of information on Agra here-
