Taj Mahal
Najbolje vrijeme za posjetu
Arrive right at sunrise (opens 6:00 AM) for soft pink light and the smallest crowds. October through March offers the clearest skies; summer brings intense heat and haze.
Savjeti za budžet
Foreign visitors pay about INR 1,100 for main mausoleum access, while domestic visitors pay INR 50. Skip the optional upper gallery ticket unless you want the raised view; the main platform already gives you the classic photo angle.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Otprilike 7 do 8 miliona ljudi posjeti svake godine, što ga čini jednim od najposjećenijih spomenika na svijetu. Cijela građevina mijenja nijansu od ružičaste u zoru do zlatne na zalasku, zahvaljujući mramoru koji mijenja boju sa svjetlom.
Istaknuto: Četiri minareta su svaki blago nagnuta prema van, oko 2 stepena, tako da bi pri zemljotresu pali dalje od glavne kupole umjesto da se sruše na nju. Izbliza, bijeli mramor je ukrašen sa 28 vrsta poludragog kamenja, uključujući lapis lazuli i žad, formirajući cvjetove toliko detaljne da vam treba povećalo da vidite pojedinačne latice.
Insajderski savjeti
- Wear shoes you can slip off easily, since you must remove them or wear provided shoe covers before stepping onto the marble platform.
- Check the moonrise schedule on the night viewing dates, those visits run five nights around the full moon and sell out weeks ahead.
- Visit the Yamuna river viewpoint behind the complex for a different silhouette shot that most tourists never find.
- Skip the Friday closure, the main mausoleum shuts for prayers and only the gardens stay open.
