It’s good to know that the train is the best way out to Agra, and that a guide is recommended. Your photos inside made me realize that I’ve never seen anything online beyond the front facade. It’s nice to really learn about the history of the Taj Mahal and see a little bit more beyond the standard photo out front!

I remember being blinded by the white marble in the sunshine… I loved the semi-precious stones encrusted in the walls of the chamber, such a huge amount of work when into this… The only downside was the pressure of the local guides and sellers of all kinds, they were hard to shake off!

The wife deserves a castle for having 14 kids!! Was the 14th the one that overthrew him? How money messes up families!

I find this really helpful and all the images added extra magic here. Good work.

Great idea putting in the how to get to/from and around in it. I think that gets left out of a lot of posts about the Taj Mahl.

You know I have been to Taj so many times now, but it’s just everytime you visit it’s a surreal feeling!

Moreover, I really reaaaaallllllly like the way you have written about Agra and Tajmahal!

Hope to revisit one day. It was one of the first sights I visited outside Mumbai. I really enjoyed your article, it made me relieve my experience. Ha ha, and I agree with you about the Indian Railway website being extremely frustrating. It’s very overloaded and poorly designed, although it did improve over the years. I’ve been using Cleatrip and it was a far better experience, but I have a local bank card. Not sure what would it be like with a foreign one.

I think I’m going to plan for next year. I knew the emperor built it as a memorial for his wife, but I had no idea he wanted a replica built for himself but was overthrown by his son and locked away. Smh. I agree with you about the tours. I prefer to do everything on my own unless it’s a monument or site that I can’t access myself. Some of these tours have gotten expensive. I’ve saving this post for when I visit because I’ll def be adding some of these activities to my itinerary!
