It is referred as Golden Triangle because of the triangular symmetry, and because of the fact that these three places in India are architectural treasures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delhi is the best destination to begin your journey with. Delhi, the capital of India, will surprise you with every sight. Even when you visit the various monuments and historic sights, do not forget to take a sneak peek of Old Delhi. The fervor of street life and amazing food is the real nerve of Delhi. The people are very warm and friendly but being a tourist, you need to keep in mind that people may come to talk to you with commercial motives. Also keep your passport and money bag intact with you, rather than leaving it in your backpack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take care in choosing your route and transport. These cities are well connected by train and bus services. If you have planned to go by bus keep in mind that it is going to be a long journey. If food and water are not included in your ticket cost, carry enough water and food to keep yourself hydrated because food joints are not available for short distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get down at Agra and marvel about the architecture of Taj Mahal. The mausoleum was built by Shahjahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Irrespective of the season, do not forget to carry a sun protection cream when you are travelling in India, as the chances of getting sunburn are high through the Golden Triangle route. As bid adieu to the unparalleled beauty of Taj Mahal, check out the streets for souvenirs but keep in mind that shopkeepers may charge you triple the amount. There is ample room for bargaining almost everywhere you shop throughout the<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classictajtours.com\/package-type\/golden-triangle-india.html\">Golden Triangle in India<\/a><\/strong>, the cities make for excellent shopping circuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your last stop, Jaipur, will be an introduction to the royal India. The Rajputana culture, their architecture and food will enthrall you. Also known as the Pink City, Jaipur is famous for Hawa Mahal and many of its cherished forts and\u00a0<em>havelis<\/em>. As you shop for various artifacts, especially gemstones and silk, keep in mind that there may be fake ones as well, so buy them from reputed shops for good value for money. Taking care of small things will make your tour through the Golden Triangle memorable and exciting enough to return.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Golden Triangle in India comprises of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur.
