Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the best month to visit?

    The Taj Mahal is thronged by visitors pretty much all over the calendar year. Most international tourists travelling to India for business or pleasure like to make a quick dash to Agra to witness this Wonder of the World.

    But the best time to visit this part of the state of Utter Pradesh is in the winter months (October to March).  The weather during this time of the year is just perfect: 50 °F to 77 °F. It is perfect for outdoor travel and sightseeing.

  • Is there a dress code for the Taj Mahal?

    No, there is no dress code per se to visit the Taj Mahal. You can wear what you like but do keep in mind that the place is a mausoleum and has a Mosque located adjacent to it.

    Visitors are, therefore, expected to dress appropriately and wear clothes that cover their bodies. It would be culturally insensitive and inappropriate to wear revealing skimpy clothes.

  • Is there a camera fee at the Taj Mahal?

    No, you do not need to pay anything to snap photos inside the premises of the Taj Mahal through your smartphone, DSLR or point-and-shoot camera.

    However, if you are looking for professional videography or commercial cinematography, you will have to pay a camera/photography fee for it.

    Please bear in mind that drone cameras are strictly prohibited in the territorial limits of the Taj Mahal.

  • Can I buy entrance tickets online?

    Yes, you don’t have to stand in long queues to buy a ticket to visit the Taj Mahal. Buying tickets is now quite easy.

    All you have to do is visit the following websites and follow the simple instructions to buy your ticket.

    https://asi.paygov.org.in/
    https://asi.payumoney.com/

  • What is the entrance fees for the Taj Mahal ?

    Visiting the Taj Mahal is quite a steal. It cost 1,100 for foreigners to visit the Taj Mahal.

    Please note that Taj Mahal is closed on Friday.

    The entrance fee for Agra Fort is (650 INR). For other iconic landmarks, the fees are as follows: Baby Taj (310 INR), Sikandra (310 INR), and Fatehpur Sikri (650 INR).

    Tickets for the Taj Mahal are available on the following portal hosted by the Archaeological Survey of India ( https://www.asiagracircle.in/index.html

  • Is the Taj Mahal open at night?

    Yes, every month the Taj Mahal opens for ‘night viewing’ for five nights. These include the night of the full moon, the two nights before the full moon night and two nights after the full moon night.

    Please note that slots are limited and every night only 8 batches of 50 people each are take on 30 minutes tours of the Taj from 20:30 hrs to 00:30 hrs.

    Expect very tight security arrangement when you show up for night viewing. You will have to go through multiple check points and searches before you are allowed in.

  • How many days are enough for an Agra trip?

    If you are interested in the Taj Mahal alone, then it won’t take you a day or two but we would advise against rushing it in Agra.

    There is so much more to see in Agra, namely, the UNESCO World Heritage site of Itimad-ud-Daula (Mausoleum known as Mini Taj), Sikandra and the ancient bazaar of Agra that teems with hidden gems and cultural treasures dating back centuries.

    A luxurious Taj-viewing hotel and spa experience, the UNESCO World Heritage Agra Fort, visits to artisanal workshops in the old city quarters are also well worth your time.

    We also recommend a visit to the old Kachpura village situated across the Yamuna River inhabited by the descendants of the original 22,000 workers (masons, stone-cutters, marble inlay artists and labourers) who built the Taj Mahal.

  • Which day Taj Mahal is closed?

    The Taj Mahal closed for viewing on Fridays, which is considered a sacred day of prayer and meditation in the Muslim faith. A large congregation for prayers takes place in the Mosque adjacent to the Taj Mahal on Fridays.
