Nothing in the world can beat the magical effect of the Taj Mahal. Tourists who have not set foot in India dream to be here one day and tourists who are here know what is haunting beauty. Admirés worldwide as a symbol of love and beauty of this magnificent mausoleum appears like a dream woven in stone on a star studded night. Built by Shah Jahan for his wife, Lady of love and Mumtaz Mahal, the monument tells a story of love, loss and mystery. Located on the banks of the river Yamuna this architectural wonder was built in marble and semi-precious stones which were imported from China and Italy. A mere four-hour drive from Delhi will take you to Agra. If you venture on a Taj Mahal Tour do not forget to include the Agra Fort, Itmad-ud-Daullah’s Tomb, Chini Ka Rauza Sikandra and to obtain an overview on the architecture and Mughal Era. To experience more endearing also visit the city of abandonment en route to Fatehpur Sikri.

Taj Mahal Tour starts to touch your Delhi. Doing it right away to achieve quickly and early enough to begin exploring. Keep two days by hand to a good Taj Mahal in Agra Tour.After you reach do not go to the Taj Mahal immediately. Instead of taking the time to know this old town with its narrow lanes and Mughlai cuisine. Discover some of the items made by hand for sale by road. Strike a conversation with a local knowledge and the present scenario Agra. This is how a true traveler should travel.

The day after getting up early in the morning to go to the Taj Mahal. A careful study of the architecture tells you that the Taj architecture combines Hindu and Mughal designs with patterns and arcs. The red lotus, which is seen in Taj Mahal is actually a symbol of Brahma while the trident that features several times in the inner sanctuary of the tomb is a symbol of Shiva. If we keep in mind that Shah Jahan was a Liberal leader, which has been tightened to humanity in general rather than both Hindus or Muslims, everything falls into place. The interior room of the Taj are carved and designed with semi-precious stones, while the exterior facade is a study in geometric patterns and symmetry.It stated that the Taj looks different in the sun, in the post - noon and into the night.

Taj Mahal Tour would be incomplete without a visit to Agra Fort. Located just across the Yamuna overlooking the Taj is said that Shah Jahan used to watch the monument to his love when he was imprisoned in the Agra Fort by his own son Aurangzeb.
