About the Golden Triangle
As you can see on the map, the journey from Delhi to Agra and from Agra to Jaipur forms a triangle. It's easy to see why this route is so popular among tourists; the cities are only about 250 km apart, making train travel between them convenient.
For those unfamiliar with Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, here's a brief overview of the cities based on our experiences and opinions.
🌃 Delhi – A messy gem
Delhi is a city and a union territory that includes the New Delhi district, which is the capital of India (a bit confusing, we know). The metropolitan area of Delhi has a population of over 33 million people.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Travelling Capybaras
🌍 We are a travelling couple in our 20s who love to share valuable tips and amazing places on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. We currently have more than 10 trips together and over 50 trips separately under our belts.
✈️ We are something of a film, history and art buffs, so we're always popping into museums, castles and filming locations as we travel. Coming from a small European country, we are fascinated by big cities, whether in Asia, Europe, the USA or other parts of the world, although we also appreciate natural wonders. We also love to visit theme parks, especially Universal Studios parks all around the world.
📍 We always try to make our trips as memorable as possible by doing rigorous research and discovering new places on-site, such as cosy cafes, pop-up exhibitions and lesser-known sights. But when plans change, we're always more than ready to adapt and still make the most out of our journey.
🌟 Hop on board and enjoy our helpful travel guides!
