Taj Mahal is also one of the seven wonders of the world which are built on the bank of the Yamuna river in the city of Agra. A vacation in India is incomplete without exploring the fairytale-like monument. Millions of tourists flock every year from all around the globe to admire its serene beauty and know about its interesting history. Taj Mahal is a symbol of eternal and true love. Exploring the Taj Mahal will fill your heart with love and happiness. I can't find enough words to describe the beauty of this iconic landmark. You can spend your day at the Taj Mahal and experience many different things and make beautiful memories with your dear ones. Its Mughal architecture is gorgeous from inside and outside too. The white marble looks incredibly stunning when the sun rays reflect on them making it look like a shining jewel. This majestic monument has a mosque, surrounding lush green gardens on three sides along with a guest house. The gardens with the backdrop of the huge Taj Mahal would be perfect for the pictures. And trust me, photographers will feel like they are living a dream as every part is built so beautifully that it must be captured in your cameras. Inside the complex, permission is needed if you want to shoot. In order to make the most of your time at the Taj Mahal, you should visit early in the morning when there is very less crowd and you have the chance to enjoy more. The best thing about visiting in the morning is that you won't have to bear the heat either. March till June is considered the most ideal time to visit here. I suggest you to avoid visiting in the winter season as there will be fog and you won't be able to see the Taj Mahal clearly. Note: Taj Mahal is closed every Friday. Taj Mahal looks mesmerizing at the time of Sunrise as well as Sunset. If you plan to visit the Taj Mahal then you should try to grab this great opportunity. In case you miss the chance to witness the sunrise or sunset from the Taj Mahal, you can still be able to get a good view from the river Yamuna. It is advised to hire a guide on your excursion to the Taj Mahal as he/she will give you all the necessary information and tell you stories about the history of the monument. Guides are easily available at the Taj Mahal and even your hotel staff can arrange a guide for your visit. After spending quality time there with your friends or family you can visit nearby shops such as handicraft showrooms, carpet shops and more to get souvenirs.
