Baby Taj

Agra, Itimad-ud-Daulah's Tomb

This tomb, also referred to by many people as the 'Baby Taj' for its similarities to the Taj Mahal, is a very elegant edifice with lots of the pietra dura style decoration. As a tourist stop, it is nice because it draws far fewer visitors than the Taj Mahal or Agra Fort, and is a nice respite from the hectic street life in Agra.
