Adelaide’s riverbank: Elder Park, the footbridge and an optional Popeye cruise
Use Elder Park’s rotunda and the riverbank footbridge as clear anchors for a short Adelaide walk. Extend towards Torrens Weir only if you want more distance, and choose a boat trip separately from the walking plan.
A first weekend in Adelaide: market, North Terrace and the coast
Give the market Saturday morning, then use Adelaide’s cultural boulevard and riverbank as compact outings. Save Sunday’s coastal trip for Glenelg and keep a gallery alternative for difficult weather.
Glenelg from Adelaide: jetty, Moseley Square and local history
Give Glenelg a flexible half-day for the jetty, beachfront and Bay Discovery Centre. Arrive by a planned tram service, keep lunch near Moseley Square and treat swimming as an optional extra.
Adelaide’s Mortlock Chamber and North Terrace: books, art and stonework
Make the Mortlock Chamber the anchor of a North Terrace outing, with an art-gallery visit and the Mitchell Building’s facade nearby. Choose one collection to explore slowly instead of treating every institution as a quick photo stop.
Rundle Mall on foot: the Mall’s Balls, Beehive Corner and Adelaide Arcade
Look above the shopfronts and between the arcades on a short Rundle Mall walk. Beehive Corner, the reflective Spheres and the bronze pigs give the route a focus beyond shopping.
Agra Fort: a walk through courtyards and marble balconies
Follow the route from Amar Singh Gate into Akbar’s red sandstone stronghold, then look across the river from Shah Jahan’s marble chambers.
Fatehpur Sikri from Agra: a day among courtyards and the great gate
Set aside a half-day or longer for Akbar’s former capital, from Buland Darwaza and Jama Masjid to the palace courtyards and Diwan-i-Khas.
A first weekend in Agra: marble, red sandstone and old-city food
Pair a morning at the Taj Mahal with Agra Fort, then give the second day to the Yamuna’s north-bank monuments or the distant city of Fatehpur Sikri.
Agra’s north-bank circuit: Baby Taj, Chini ka Rauza and Ram Bagh
Cross the Yamuna for a half-day of marble inlay, blue glazed tiles and an older terraced garden, with a car or auto between gates.
Visiting the Taj Mahal: gates, gardens and marble inlay
Use the official visitor window and a simple sequence through the charbagh, marble platform and riverside edge to see more than the familiar central photograph.
