• Today you will visit the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It is worthwhile to get an early morning start so as to seize the breathtaking scenery of the sunrise at the Taj Mahal with your guide. This beautiful monument was elegantly built in white marble by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan between 1631 and 1648, in memory of his beloved Queen, Mumtaz Mahal. The Taj Mahal is closed on Fridays.
