Night at Taj Mahal


The Taj Mahal is one place which, whenever we visit it, its glory never seizes to diminish regardless of the timing in which you are visiting it. In fact, every part of the day has a different effect on the view of Taj Mahal which changes its color according to the light which is thrown at it. This effect which is created because of the marble at the Taj is at its pristine most in the night time. The influence that Taj has on the onlooker during a silent night with moon glowing above the shimmering monument of the Taj is totally a different experience altogether. The Taj Mahal gets a shimmery silver glow under the moonlight.

The sightseeing of Taj Mahal was not allowed before until the year 2004, when the government had removed a ban of 20 years in a monumental decision. It was in the beginning allowed only for three months and after much contemplation was made a permanent decision. The Taj Mahal is now open for 5 nights a month, which constitutes of the full moon night in the month and two nights before it and two nights after it. This system doesn’t work if it is Friday or in the month of Ramzan. One can witness the Taj for four hours, from 8.30 to 12.30 for only 400 people in a night. Also, the group of these 400 people is divided into a group of eight batches constituting of 50 people who can visit the Taj Mahal for 30 minutes only. The Taj Mahal at night is one of the most sought after destinations of Agra and the timing acts as cherry on the cake. One of the most romantic destinations in the Indian Tourism or the world, spending a night at the Taj Mahal is considered one of the most beautiful sights. The night fee for an adult foreigner is 750rs. And for children (3-15 years) is Rs.500. Entry is free for a child below 3 years of age.
