Things to note
This is it! The Taj Mahal. On arrival, we head out on a spectacular tour of the Taj Mahal, celebrated for its architectural magnificence and aesthetic beauty. Emperor Shah Jahan built this exquisite white marble mausoleum for his favorite queen Mumtaz Mahal. The monument was commissioned in 1631 and took 20,000 artisans, 22 years to complete. Witness the dramatic interplay of light as the sun rises and casts its golden rays over the pearl-white tomb, recreating the magic of the Taj. Once you have taken some memorizing morning photos, there is time to explore the Taj.
Agra Fort
After the Taj Mahal, we will explore the Agra Fort, an outstanding example of Mughal architecture and the stronghold of the Mughal Empire under successive generations. Shah Jahan, the creator of the Taj, spent the last years of his life imprisonment awarded by his son Aurangzeb, here. It was built in the late 1560s by their predecessor, Akbar, with later embellishments by Jahangir, his son, and Shah Jahan, his grandson.
After exploring the Taj Mahal you will be enjoying lunch in a 5-star Hotel, Hotel Courtyard By Marriott.
