AGR โ†’ HJR

Which side of the plane to sit from Agra Airport (Agra) to Khajuraho Airport (Khajuraho)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is the prime choice for this route, offering a direct view of the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort immediately after takeoff, as well as a superior angle of the UNESCO temples when approaching Khajuraho.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿ•Œ

Taj Mahal

Witness the world's most famous marble mausoleum on the banks of the Yamuna shortly after departure from Agra.

๐Ÿฐ

Agra Fort

A clear view of the massive red sandstone fortification that served as the main residence of the Mughal Emperors.

๐ŸŒŠ

Yamuna River

Follow the winding path of this sacred river as it flows southeast toward the confluence at Prayagraj.

๐Ÿ’ง

Betwa River Crossing

A prominent view of one of the major rivers of the Bundelkhand region cutting through the plains.

๐Ÿ›•

Khajuraho Temples

Spot the intricate spires of the Western Group of temples during the final descent into Khajuraho Airport.

Book a window seat on the left side (typically seat A) and keep your camera ready within the first 3-5 minutes of takeoff. Morning flights (08:00โ€“10:00) provide the best lighting for the Taj Mahal, avoiding the harsh midday glare and potential afternoon haze that can obscure the ground details.

Right Side Highlights
6.8
๐Ÿœ๏ธ

Chambal Ravines

The dramatic and rugged 'badlands' topography created by centuries of soil erosion along the Chambal River.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Vindhya Foothills

Observe the ancient, weathered peaks of the Vindhya Range as the landscape transitions from flat plains to rocky hills.

๐Ÿ›ค๏ธ

Jhansi Hinterland

Aerial views of the historic landscape surrounding Jhansi, known for its rocky outcrops and strategic forts.

๐Ÿ›ถ

Ken River

Look for the clean, blue waters of the Ken River, which passes near the Panna Tiger Reserve.

๐ŸŒณ

Bundelkhand Woodlands

Patches of dry deciduous forests and traditional agricultural clusters unique to central India.

The right side is better for observing the unique geomorphology of the Chambal ravines mid-flight. If you are flying during the monsoon season (Julyโ€“September), the right side offers lush green views of the Vindhya foothills which are otherwise quite arid and brown during the summer months.
