Like most people, visiting the Taj Mahal in Agra, India has been on our bucket list since we were kids. After waiting our whole lives to visit, we were excited to take at least one incredible photo with this world wonder. Thanks to a very early start to the day, and some careful planning, we were able to get so many beautiful photos with the iconic Taj Mahal! We decided to share our photo locations with you so you can get your own beautiful pictures with the Taj to hang on your wall or post on Instagram to live on your feed forever.
We REALLY wanted to have the chance to see the Taj Mahal without thousands of other people around, and the only way to do that was to line up before sunrise so we could be among the first people to enter the Taj Mahal on a quiet Monday morning. We couldn't believe it when we were FIRST in line to enter the grounds! We will always remember those first few minutes when there were only a handful of other tourists on the grounds of the Taj Mahal with us and we all took a few quiet moments to take in the Taj's grandeur before speed walking to get a better look and take the best photos for Instagram.
If we hadn't been so hungry (there is no where to eat at the Taj Mahal and you can't bring in food!), we could have stayed on the grounds all day. The Taj Mahal is so perfectly built that we really felt like we could have just stayed and stared at it for an entire day. The building's grandiosity and spectacular whiteness are truly mesmerizing. We couldn't believe how busy it got as the morning went on though! By 9am there were thousands of people on the grounds with us and we were so glad to have made the effort to visit the Taj Mahal at sunrise. It would have been impossible to get the best photos of the Taj Mahal if we had arrived later in the day because there are simply too many people!
In case you aren't familiar with where the Taj Mahal is located, it is situated in an Indian city called Agra which is just a short 1.5 hour train ride from Delhi.
