Jama Masjid, Agra is NOT situated opposite the Agra Fort. It is situated at Fatehpur Sikri, at least the one that is pictured here and it is twenty kilometres away.
The description is correct but the picture is from Fatehpur Sikri. The Jama Masjid in Agra technically overlooks the Agra Fort. It’s just that we have Agra Fort Railway Station in between which doesn’t give you a direct access.
