Agra - The City of Love and Romance

The golden age of Mughal rule in India has gifted us with several architectural masterpieces. One such is Taj Mahal, considered as one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Why is Taj Mahal so special? Let us check out.

Taj Mahal is an epitome of spellbinding beauty. This marble edifice is known to change colour with every phase of the day. While it has a pink hue in the morning, the colour gradually changes to milky white in the evening, golden at mid night and then it shines as a pearl on a full moon night.

Taj Mahal is embellished with semi-precious stones and painted with beautiful motifs. Every part of Taj Mahal exhibits the passion of the Emperor towards art and architecture.

Last but not the least, the exquisite setting of the monument makes it aromatic place. Taj Mahal is encircled by a sprawling garden, aromatic with the fragrance of fresh flowers and pleasant with the cool air flowing from River Yamuna.


If you want to cherish the beauty of Taj Mahal far from the maddening crowd, be at Mehtab Bagh. Walk hand in hand with your beloved on the soft green grass carpet of this garden, witnessing the sublime beauty of Taj Mahal or relax enjoying the joyous melodies of fountains and tweets of numerous birds.

If you want to know the beautiful love story between Mumtaz Mahal to whom the Taj is dedicated and Emperor Shah Jahan, do not miss the show in the evening, known as Mohabbat, the Taj Show.

When to visit?

The Taj Mahal is open every day except Friday. From sunrise to sunset this place can be visited and if you want to visit it on full moon night special permission is required. You can explore this place in a luxury way by Maharajas Express train. Choose the journeys which are offered by Maharajas Express such as Gems of India, Treasures of India and Heritage of India
