Pack some snacks. There aren't many food options inside, and you wouldn't want to be stuck feeling hungry while marveling at the architecture.

Consider hiring a local guide. They can share stories and insights about the fort that you won’t find in guidebooks, making the experience much richer.

if you’re into photography, don’t miss the view of the taj mahal from one of the fort's towers. it’s a stunning sight!

Bring some water with you, especially if you're visiting in the summer months. The heat can get intense, and staying hydrated is key!

I suggest visiting in the morning around 9 AM. It's much less crowded then and you'll get a peaceful experience while exploring the submarine.

If you can, book your tickets online in advance. The lines can be long, and I found the online process super smooth and quick.

Bring some water and snacks along, as the nearby vendors can be hit or miss. It’s better to be prepared and save some cash!

I suggest visiting the tomb around 9 AM to avoid the crowds and enjoy the peaceful vibe. I went later and it was packed!

Look for areas with less people to get better photos; some spots are super popular but if you wander a bit, you'll find hidden gems. I discovered a lovely corner away from the crowd!

Make sure to bring some water and snacks—you'll be wandering around for a while! I ended up buying overpriced water from a vendor because I forgot.

If you have a camera, take advantage of the sunrise light—it's magical. I regret not doing an early morning shoot when I was there.

I think it’s best to skip some of the more touristy guides; they can be overly verbose. Just enjoy the signs around the exhibits – they're informative enough.

I recommend getting there by 10 AM; it’s quieter then and you can really soak in the exhibits without throngs of people. Plus, the morning light is just perfect for photos!

If you can, grab your tickets online. I wasted about half an hour in line at the ticket counter, which was a bummer. You can saev time that way!

I think it's a great idea to wear good shoes because the path can get a bit slippery, especially if it rained recently. I almost slipped a couple of times!

I recommend visiting in the early morning around 7 AM for the best views and to avoid the crowds. Trust me, the sunrise over the mountains is breathtaking
