You can not let you leave the country before visiting youAgra.

Come for the Taj Mahal and stay to see the strong agra, the grave of Itimad-Ud-Daulah, and the beautiful Fatehpur Sikri, a small town west of Agra. No matter where you go, you will have to fight tourists like you. Our advice is to be patient and counting your blessings - you are about to consult a UNESCO World Heritage site.
