Historic city of Mughal empire. There is a collection of monuments here- mosque, courtyards, horse stables, palace etc. You will need at least two to three hours to explore everything. World's largest gate- Buland Darwaza is also located here. Bare in mind that the place can get super hot in summer time. Make sure to have enough water with you.
