off the beaten track? Anything?

OK so a friend is visiting from far away and I have ever so reluctantly agreed to go to Agra with him. I went once before (on my second trip to India) and it was fine but nothing special. Anyway we will be spending the night there and although I will have to devote some time to the Taj Mahal, I was wondering if there are other ‘time pass’ things to do there. I don’t want to go to Fatepur Sikri or the ort or anything else historical or educational, or outdoors, lol. So should I just recline in the air conditioned hotel or is there anything else to do in the area (either interesting shopping or nature walks or anything out of the ordinary).

Thanks!
