Itinerary

1. Same Day Boat Ride view Taj

   • Panoramic View of the Taj Mahal’s Rear Facade
     • From the boat, you’ll get to see the back of the Taj Mahal, which is equally beautiful, though less commonly photographed. The rear of the monument features a stunning symmetry with the backdrop of the river, lush green gardens, and a picturesque setting.
     • The boat ride provides a view of the Taj Mahal's gardens and reflection in the Yamuna river, offering a serene, almost mystical scene that contrasts with the bustling crowds at the main entrance.
   • Peaceful and Scenic Ride
     • The Yamuna River provides a peaceful escape from the crowds at the Taj Mahal, as the boat glides slowly across the water, giving you time to soak in the surroundings.
     • You can enjoy the tranquility of the Yamuna River, surrounded by greenery, wildlife, and the soft hum of the water, creating an intimate and quieter experience of the monument.
   • Bird's Eye View of the Monument and Its Surroundings
     • From the boat, you can see not only the Taj Mahal but also its grand gardens, the reflecting pool, and the red sandstone walls that surround it. This view allows for a broader understanding of the layout of the monument and its architectural beauty from the river perspective.
   • Great for Photography
     • The back view of the Taj Mahal, framed by the river, offers a unique angle for photographers. The soft light during the early morning or late afternoon can create beautiful, golden-hour shots with the Taj Mahal's white marble glowing in the sunlight.
     • The reflection of the Taj Mahal in the Yamuna River is particularly mesmerizing and makes for a stunning shot.
   • A Historical Context
     • During the time of its construction, the Yamuna River was an important aspect of the Taj Mahal’s design and aesthetic. The boat ride allows visitors to connect more deeply with the landscape that influenced the monument’s location and design.
