  • Resumen

  • Vincent is visiting the Taj Mahal, or at least he's trying to. He wants to witness the sun rising over the white marble building as he's heard it's an almost spiritual experience. His visit begins in the middle of the night in Delhi as he jumps in a cab bound for Agra. 

    The 17th-century mausoleum built on the banks of the Yamuna river by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan was built for his wife Mumtaz. It's believed that around twenty thousand workers toiled for more than two decades to complete a construction that cost, in today's money, in the region of 530 million pounds.

    Aside from its monuments, Agra is known for its leather industry, records of which can be traced back to the city for hundreds of years. Even Mughal emperors sent courtiers to have footwear made by the local artisans, using the finest leather. Vincent wants to get beyond the tourist trail and under the skin of the place to understand what is means when something is 'Made in India'.
