Taj Mahal is an ivory-white marble mausoleum located in Agra. The Mughal Emperor Shahjahan built it in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal, four hundred years ago. Taj Mahal houses the tomb of Shah Jahan himself as well. It's the tomb of the wife of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. Mumtaz Mahal was built of marble by over 20,000 workers between 1632 and 1648 and is a monument to the enduring power of love. It covers forty-two acres, including a mosque and a guest house and is surrounded by a crenellated wall bounded by gardens on three sides. The exterior displays are among the finest in Mughal architecture. The ornaments are proportionally refined as the surface area changes. The Taj Mahal's inner chamber stretches well beyond conventional decorative elements.

TAJ MAHAL REVIEWS
No doubt it's one of the 7 wonders of the world. Spectacular, Beauty created with great architectural skills. Hire a guide there and you will get so much more to know. It will take around 1hour 30 minutes for a full tour with a guide. It has been created so thoughtfully ages ago that you can't imagine. The symmetry in architecture, the 2D designing giving 3D illusions, the carvings of gems and the way they glow in light, I was so amused to see all that which I didn't know earlier. I admire the beauty but more than that the architectural skills. Must visit atleast once in a lifetime..
Marvellous piece of Architecture. In India there many places with great architecture. This monument is worth visiting. Better to book online tickets and avoid long queue. Early morning is best time to visit less crowded and peaceful. Drinking water is available inside gate no need to carry bottles avoid plastic.
It was an awesome experience to explore this monument which is one of the 7 wonders of the world. Words can’t describe the beauty of Tajmahal. I would recommend visiting during a full moon if possible

AGRA FORT REVIEWS
A historical fort having incredible architecture and ambience. A vast area of fort is with Indian Defence. Better to visit the fort with a Guide who can explain the historical aspects of the fort. The entrance, ambience, Courtyards and other structures are really grand. The red stone and marbles used for construction of the fort, give a royal feeling.
Amazing place to see.Combination of Hindu & Islamic Culture. It's a huge fort. Highly maintained. The architecture, the vibe will take you in the ancient times. Ticket Available online. You should definitely visit here once if you are in Agra.
Mugal monument with lovely architecture and garden. Huge area and every nuke and corner is filled with Sand stone and Marvel work. Garden are maintained beautifully. During winter gardens are mesmerizing. You can spend hours there but won't feel bore. Nice place for photography.

Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah is a Mughal mausoleum. The Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah is also known as the baby taj. It is the tomb of Mirza Ghiyas Beg, the grandfather of Mumtaz Mahal. The main attraction is the carved jali in the marble; it will be in your memory forever, and the entire building was built by the Mughals using marble. The finely carved jali on the marble is something that will stay in your memory forever. This structure made by the Mughals is also an utterly marble one. Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah has a multi-storeyed genuine pleasure pavilion made of red sandstone with bold inlaid designs in white marble. Beautiful floral, stylized, arabesque and geometrical designs have been depicted in inlay and mosaic techniques on the exterior.

TOMB OF I'TIMAD-UD-DAULAH REVIEWS
A masterpiece, as per me more intricate and beautiful than the Taj Mahal. Commissioned by Nurjahan in memory of her parents. It's a marble mausoleum with beautifully carved stones. Precious stones and gold work currently in Britain courtesy Goras(pun intended). Located on the banks of Yamuna, it was a precursor and inspiration for the Taj Mahal.
Really one of the underestimated monument of agra....and if you are interested in the architecture of mughal era this monument has very good and delicate carvings(pietra dura). Must visit and observe this rich heritage.
It has exquisite art work on marble and red sandstone like Taj Mahal. This was built by Nur Jahan the Mugal empress. Her parents are buried here. Beautiful place, usually less crowded than Taj Mahal.
