At 11am visit the nearby Red Fort, another amazing building which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Often forgotten behind the nearby Taj Mahal, the Red Fort features more impressive architecture and beautiful pavilions. Your guide will teach you all about the origin, historical journey and beautiful palaces inside the fort.
At 1pm, take a break with some free time to have lunch. Then, around 2pm, proceed to visit the Baby Taj Mahal, Itimad-ud-Daulah's Tomb. This site is another architectural marvel, which is situated on the bank of Yamuna. This is also called the Mini Taj Mahal because it has many similarities to the Taj Mahal itself including: minars, stone work called "pietra dura" and lattice work. Your guide will explain its history, carving work and architecture to you.
At 2:30pm, visit Mehtab Bagh (Moonlight Garden) for an awesome romantic view of the Taj Mahal. Mahtab Bagh is located across the river Yamuna from the Taj Mahal, and is a perfect place to view the Taj Mahal without the jostling crowds.
