Spend about two hours visiting the Missionaries of Charity home, which cares for a group of orphaned or less fortunate children, as well as some adults.

When you leave the charity home, you have time for shopping in Agra, which is known for handicrafts made of marble and soft stone inlay work. The Mughals were great patrons of arts and crafts. Agra's other major handicraft products include leatherware, brassware, carpets, jewelry, and embroidery work. In the early afternoon, enjoy a provided lunch at a local restaurant.
