Chini ka rauza tomb - persian glazed tiles worth the detour

This 17th century tomb has beautiful persian-style faience work thats completely different from typical mughal sandstone. Dedicated to afzal khan, poet and minister under shah jahan. The glazed tile technique creates brilliant blues and greens you dont see elsewhere in agra

Sits quietly along yamuna with almost zero visitors. Entry is free. Tile work in various repair states but still impressive craftsmanship. About 25 minutes by auto from agra fort, around 7 km distance
