Join BZ Travel in Episode 66 of our Ultimate World Cruise as we embark on an epic journey to visit the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. This episode captures the complexity and beauty of traveling across India, from the southern port of Cochin to the majestic Taj Mahal in Agra.
Our adventure starts as we dock at Cochin and take an unusual route to reach the Taj Mahal, involving multiple modes of transport including flights, trains, and buses. The logistical challenges are immense, but the allure of seeing the Taj Mahal up close drives us forward. Along the way, we experience the contrasts of India, from its innovative green initiatives at Cochin International Airport to the undeniable pollution and urban sprawl.
As we travel north, each leg of the journey offers a deeper insight into the diverse tapestry of India’s landscape and culture. The train ride to Agra is a spectacle in itself, with a warm welcome complete with drums, flowers, and a red carpet.
Finally, as we approach the Taj Mahal, the anticipation builds. The iconic monument does not disappoint, with its breathtaking beauty and intricate craftsmanship standing as a testament to love and artistry that transcends generations. This journey to the Taj Mahal is not just a visit to a historic site; it’s an immersion into the heart of India, filled with challenges, wonders, and the vibrant spirit of its people.

A very beautiful place to be sure, but the trip there is another story. Thank you for sharing.

I’m so thankful you don’t try to give a spin to all your journeys to make it all seem magical. I love seeing the truth, the real journey and the real culture. It’s very educational. Thank you.

I am struck by the sharp contrasts between the beauty and architectural features of the Taj Mahal against the very obvious poverty and pollution in India. Thank you for sharing both the good and the bad. I must say, though, that Royal Caribbean has done an outstanding job planning and coordinating all the Wonders of the World excursions. Keep the videos coming!

I’ve been following you guys through the 9 month long voyage and don’t fail to see your videos. Yes - due to overpopulation in the cities of India , there is a lot of problems with sanitation and garbage disposal but the Government and civic bodies are trying hard to overcome this. You must understand- it’s difficult in a large and diverse country like India . Also - areas along train tracks somehow seem to have the worst of it. I’d urge you to explore the beautiful interior countrysides ranging from the Western ghats, Gangetic plains, rainforests and deserts ;not to mention the forts of Rajasthan, temples of Tamil Nadu and the backwaters of Kerala - to name a few. And for what it’s worth - I do think that an entire airport powered by solar is pretty neat and worth a commendation 😊 all the pollution notwithstanding. Enjoy the rest of your journey and hope to see many more wonderful places through your videos. 🙏

Thanks so much for sticking with us and for your insightful comment! 🌟 We absolutely understand the challenges India faces with sanitation, especially in bustling, densely populated cities. We're currently editing our Mumbai video, and our goal is to share exactly what we see and how it makes us feel. We mean no offense at all, and we apologize if it came across that way. The situation with the lack of sewer treatment in a city as large as Mumbai is indeed shocking, and it’s something we felt needed to be highlighted. The solar-powered airport is an initiative that took some of the limited resources from the real need of garbage collection and disposal to enrich someone connected to the government. We live in Bulgaria and in the 90s the garbage was a problem there too, now we have dumpsters everywhere. People need a way to dispose the trash, if none is provided it will go on the sheet and next to the railroad.

Mumtaz was not his first wife, I believe she was his 14th wife and after her death, Shahjahan married to her younger sister. After complition of Taj Mahal, he cut hands of all workers so they can not build another.

@bztravel Месяц назад

Thank You for watching and for the comment! We usually check few sources and try to be as correct as possible. We focus on the travel and less on history, this we believe to be the facts: 1. Number of Wives: Mumtaz Mahal was actually the third wife of Shah Jahan, not the 14th. She was indeed his favorite and deeply loved, which is reflected in the grandeur of the Taj Mahal, built in her memory. 2. Marriage to Her Sister: There’s no historical evidence supporting that Shah Jahan married Mumtaz’s younger sister after her death. 3. Workers’ Hands Cut Off: This is a popular myth, but there’s no credible evidence to support the claim that Shah Jahan ordered the hands of the Taj Mahal workers to be cut off to prevent them from building another similar monument. This tale seems to be more folklore than fact.

@rolandvanvelzen Месяц назад

Talking about a country that is disrespecting the climate / environment, while sailing in by cruiseship and flying up and down the Taj Mahal sounds a little bit hypocrite. Sorry. Iike your videos. I like your world cruise. But beware of your own environmental impact.

@patperritt856 Месяц назад

Your just as guilty sitting behind your computer using energy, everything that you use today uses oil, even electric vehicles, so before accusing one person 🧍‍♀️ f watching their environmental impact, beware of your own

Why should a country outside the US care about the environment? They do as they please and the US should not get involved. Their people have thrive and live in pollution. If you try to clean it up, they will die off faster.
