Humayan's Tomb
Before the Taj Mahal there was Humayan's Tomb, the first of the great Mughal garden tombs built in 1570. This is one of the first places I visited when I arrived in India. We arrived early afternoon after an overnight flight, but as we had only two nights in Delhi, I was not about to waste daylight hours sleeping. I hired a taxi for the afternoon to take me around three locations (of which this was one). As I recall, the taxi fare for the entire afternoon (including a generous percentage tip) was £7.
