Itinerary
The Taj Mahal 'Crown of the Palace' is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the right bank of the river Yamuna in the Indian city of Agra. It was commissioned in 1632 by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan (r. 1628–1658) to house the tomb of his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal; it also houses the tomb of Shah Jahan himself. The tomb is the centerpiece of a 17-hectare (42-acre) complex, which includes a mosque and a guest house, and is set in formal gardens bounded on three sides by a crenellated wall.

About Agra
Agra, on the Yamuna River in northern India, is home to the Taj Mahal, the monumental Agra Fort and the Mughal ghost city of Fatehpur Sikri.
The Taj Mahal, built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan as a mausoleum for his wife Mumtaz Mahal, is one of the most admired buildings anywhere, its white marble changing colour from dawn to dusk. Its gardens, reflecting pools and inlaid stonework are loveliest early in the morning, and the Mehtab Bagh gardens across the river offer a calm sunset view.
Top-ranked sights in Agra: Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah.
