Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

The Taj Mahal, located in Agra, India, is one of the most iconic and beautiful monuments in the world. Built between 1632 and 1654 by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, this majestic mausoleum is an eternal symbol of love.

The complex, made entirely of white marble, is adorned with intricate inlays of precious stones and Islamic calligraphy. Its symmetrical design includes a large central dome, four minarets, and beautiful gardens that reflect the perfection of Mughal art.

Visiting the Taj Mahal at sunrise or sunset offers a magical experience, with the sunlight transforming the colors of the marble. Don't miss the opportunity to explore this World Heritage Site and marvel at its stunning beauty and rich history.

Stop 2

Agra Fort, also known as the Red Fort, is an impressive fortress located in Agra, India. Built between 1565 and 1573 by the Mughal Emperor Akbar, this majestic red sandstone complex is a testament to the grandeur of the Mughal Empire.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the fort houses a number of palaces, mosques, and gardens that reflect the rich Mughal history and architecture. Notable attractions include Jahangir Palace, the Khas Mahal, and the Pearl Mosque (Moti Masjid).

Walking around its ramparts and towers offers panoramic views of the Yamuna River and the nearby Taj Mahal. Agra Fort is not only an architectural marvel, but also a place filled with stories of power, intrigue, and romance.

Stop 3

Mehtab Bagh, situated on the opposite bank of the Yamuna River from the Taj Mahal, is a Persian garden that offers the best views of the iconic mausoleum. Meaning “Garden of Moonlight,” this garden was created by Emperor Babur and later perfected by Shah Jahan to enjoy the view of the Taj Mahal under the moonlight1.

The garden is perfectly aligned with the Taj Mahal, providing a serene and picturesque setting for visitors. Strolling along its paths, lined with fruit trees and flowers, allows for a peaceful and contemplative experience, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Mehtab Bagh is the ideal place to capture stunning photographs of the Taj Mahal, especially at sunset, when the golden light enhances the beauty of the white marble. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit this oasis of peace and beauty on your trip to Agra.
