Kinari Bazaar

At the butcher's.
Agra is one of the most visited cities in India with foreign and local tourists. Its glorious Taj Mahal is a must see for every tourist visiting this diverse country. Most of the people visit just Taj and Red fort, maybe Fatehpur Sikri on the way to Rajasthan. But there is a lot more to see in this touristy city.

Local markets are usually better experience than every “official” sights in every city.   In Agra there is an interesting bazaar just west from the Fort, close to Jama Masjid mosque. It is called Kinari bazaar.  You will find there everything you wished for and more. Much more.

The best thing about the bazaar is that people are friendlier, not pushy like the guys around major tourist attractions. The smiles on their faces are pristine. Not used to foreigners and this is just couple of hundred metres away from the Fort.

Friendly Tuk Tuk driver.
The traffic is crazy, but friendly Tuk tuk driver did a great job taking me through terrible chaos on the road.

Two beggars.
A cup of tea is always a good idea.
