The PM also shared a small video of his trip to the Taj Mahal on Twitter.

He will return to New Delhi in the evening to inaugurate the the 3rd annual Raisina Dialogue.

In a tweet posted on the official handle of the Israeli PM, Benjamin Netanyahu was quoted as saying: "This is a moment of relaxation on a very intensive visit. I would like to thank Indian PM Modi for allowing us this moment as well. In India we met much love, love for Israel, and here we are in the temple of love."

The Israeli PM arrived in India on Sunday.

He is on a six-day visit to the Asian nation.
