The 37-km bus ride to Farehpur Sikri from Agra was longer than expected. But it was really worthwhile. I wished that I had time to spend one night there. It is full of well preserved palaces and courtyards, and a very relaxing atmosphere which is rare in India. When eating lunch in a restaurant, I chatted with a French young couple who were performer/artist in their home country and were trying to put together a half an hour silent play as a road show in India. I asked them they wanted to use the play for artistic expression, social changes, atc. They merely wanted to expressed a hiker's story reaching across cultural barriers. Clearly, French and Indian do not share many cultural expressions and symbols. I wished them the best luck.
