Agra -> New Delhi -> Bangalore -> Mysore
In economic terms, from the perspective of the uninitiated pedestrian, the hearts of India's premier cities resemble the outskirts of China's second-tier provincial capitals. India's pockets of rapid growth are cozily nestled - in many cases hidden - among neighborhoods of inchoate social fabric and wide boulevards abutted by sandy depressions in place of sidewalks. The sight of a stray cow ambling across six lanes of heavy traffic in the middle of New Delhi is, astonishingly, rather common.

Mysore - think of it as Facebook for seniors, where they can gather to compare ailments and infirmities.
