Uttar Pradesh city on the Yamuna River — anchored by the Taj Mahal (Mughal mausoleum, 1632-1653), Agra Fort, and Fatehpur Sikri 40km west. Taj Ganj (the dense walkable strip immediately south of the Taj) and the Sadar Bazaar are the typical visitor anchors; long-stays are unusual. Same India e-Tourist visa story. The structural draw is the Mughal architectural density unmatched anywhere in India; the structural filters are high tourist density year-round, air quality crashes October-February (winter inversion + crop burning push AQI 300+), and very thin coworking infrastructure.

Editorial estimates. Not financial advice. The 4% rule is a planning anchor, not a guarantee — sequence-of-returns risk and tax-jurisdiction friction (US-LLC / FEIE / state residency) can move the real number meaningfully. See our expat tax directory for the cross-border side of the math.
