After our landing at Delhi Airport and the transfer to the hotel, it's time for an early breakfast and a short rest, followed by a tour of Delhi – a city steeped in 300 years of history! The city will charm us with its relentless rhythm and pulsating contrasts, a modern, vibrant, and cacophonous world that welcomes every visitor! The Old City, a symbol of ancient traditions and the capital of Muslim India stands in stark contrast to the completely different image of New Delhi – a place striving to develop to the latest standards! Our tour starts by passing through the "Heart of India" and the Red Fort – built from red sandstone and constructed by Emperor Shah! This impressive monument rises with its 18-meter walls and impresses with the historical role it has played for the city. We continue to the most picturesque part of the Old City – Chandni Chowk, once an imperial boulevard lined with trees, and now filled with small ancient bazaars and temples of various religions, including a church. Our tour will proceed to the new city, passing by the Parliament, various government buildings, the "Gateway of India" – a majestic arch towering proudly at 42 meters and one of the most perfect buildings of the Persian world, the Qutub Minar minaret! Next, we will visit the Mausoleum of Emperor Humayun from the Mughal dynasty, built by his widow Haji Begum, which even to this day stands as an exceptional monument in the Indian-Persian architectural style! At the end of this rich and impressive day, we return to the hotel where we can relax, rest, and enjoy the incomparable Indian cuisine!

Today, after our breakfast, we are set to check out from the hotel and head to a wonderful destination – Jaipur, also known as the "Pink City." It is a favorite spot for traders and one of the culturally richest cities in India! After checking in at our hotel and taking a short break, we will embark on an evening visit to one of the most beautiful temples – Birla Mandir.

We wake up with excitement for the upcoming day because it promises to be filled with diverse experiences! After breakfast, we set off in jeeps towards Amber Fort - one of the most magnificent palaces in India! This majestic building with labyrinthine corridors, winding staircases, and white marble is an architectural masterpiece and of great significance in Indian history. We'll experience a true sensory paradise - miniatures painted on the walls depicting hunting scenes and festivities, precious stones, and rooms where walls are adorned with sparkling pieces of mirrors! Our day continues with a visit to the majestic Palace of the Winds - Hawa Mahal, which boasts a unique pyramidal shape, pink color, intricate ornamentation, and small windows from where women from the harem observed social events in the past. In the afternoon, we head to the City Palace - a former royal residence transformed into a museum. We'll enjoy a complex of courtyards, gardens, and buildings showcasing the remarkable fusion of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture and an exceptional arsenal of weapons once used in royal families. In close proximity lies our last stop for the day - the Jantar Mantar Observatory. Made of stone and marble and adorned with whimsical giant figures, it is the world's largest and was built for astronomical observations! Its name in Sanskrit means "instrument for calculations," and many of the large instruments are still in working condition. If you still have the energy for exploration or simply want to relax in the city's embrace, we have the opportunity to explore the streets and feel the bustling atmosphere of Jaipur while riding rickshaws! Our day concludes with a return to the hotel, time to relax, and an exquisite dinner that will delight all senses thanks to the enchanting Indian cuisine!

Our day begins early after breakfast. After preparing our luggage, we head to Agra, a city located along the sacred Yamuna River, renowned for its rich history and numerous monuments. En route, we make a stop to visit the remains of Abhaneri - a small village, legend has it that the goddess Harshat Mata blessed the entire village with brightness, hence its translation as the "City of Brightness". The main attraction here is Chand Baori - the massive stepwell, built to store rainwater and the largest stepwell in India! You'll see the marvelous carvings on the steps, turning it into an exceptional architectural marvel and an enthralling experience for every visitor. Continuing our journey, we arrive and check into our hotel in Agra. Each of you has the opportunity to explore the surroundings independently or, for an additional fee, enjoy the "Taj Show Mohabbat" - a performance about love, narrating the story of Shah Jahan and his wife Mumtaz Mahal! It's a chance to immerse yourself in the history, traditions, and costumes of that period, as well as witness a reenactment of various aspects of the Taj Mahal! Our day concludes with a return to the hotel, time to relax, and a delightful dinner that will delight all senses thanks to the enchanting Indian cuisine!

After breakfast, we set out on our panoramic tour of Agra, which includes a visit to Agra Fort, also known as the Red Fort. Surrounded by a seventy-meter wall, this is the longest fort in India! The events that unfolded here in the past led to the construction of the Taj Mahal. This is where Shah Jahan spent his last years, imprisoned by his own son. Enjoy the splendid view of the Taj Mahal that unfolds before you! Next comes the most exciting part of the day – the temple of love – the Taj Mahal! Described as the "teardrop on the cheek of eternity," the "embodiment of purity," or, as its creator Shah Jahan said, it makes "the sun and the moon shed tears from their eyes," it is the most beautiful building in the world! This architectural marvel, made of white marble, is perfectly proportioned, adorned with marble screens inlaid with precious stones in beautiful patterns, fountains, and gardens. A perfect symmetrical creation with four identical faces, it features impressive arched domes adorned with Quranic inscriptions in calligraphic style, using inlaid jasper. The Taj Mahal not only tells a story of love but also showcases the skills of 20,000 builders and artisans gathered from Persia, Turkey, France, and Italy, who worked for 17 years to complete this "Marble Poem of Love"! Our day ends with a return to the hotel, time to relax, and a delightful dinner that will please all senses thanks to the enchanting Indian cuisine!

After breakfast, prepared for our journey, we head back to Delhi, where we are about to visit the Akshardham Temple - the largest Hindu temple in the world, splendidly created by the followers of the god Swaminarayan. Masterful ancient techniques have sculpted the pale red sandstone into intricate reliefs, featuring 20,000 deities, saints, and mythical beings! The central element is a 3-meter golden statue of Bhagwan Shri Swaminarayan, surrounded by even more enchanting wood carvings. Visiting this temple is an incredible experience; every element here is filled with spirituality! This spiritually enriching experience demonstrates the power of prayer, gives a sense of the strength of kindness, and allows us to learn about the ancient principles of Hinduism. Regardless of our religious beliefs, this fantastic creation, made by human hands with the help of volunteers in just 5 years, evokes immense admiration and leaves unforgettable memories.
