There are beautiful monuments and then there is the Taj Mahal. There are no words magnificent enough to describe the splendour of this beautiful tomb. And, the only thing that can be more stunning than the Taj Mahal is the Taj Mahal on full moon night.
Imagine the sheer beauty of the white monument standing tall on a dark night illuminated by the milky white moon rays. Not to forget the calm river, the star-rich sky and the silence. It is a unique experience that cannot be unparalleled for someone who admires art, history, and cultural monuments.
And if you happen to be someone who loves photography, how can you miss the chance to photograph the Most Photographed Monument in the World. Yes that is indeed Taj Mahal!
