Watch the majestic Taj Mahal from across the river as thousands of birds return home at dusk. Mehtab Bagh, or the Moonlit Garden, lies directly opposite the Taj and was once designed as an integral part of its original layout. Walk or meditate in its serene pathways, soak in the quiet beauty of the Yamuna, and let nature help you unwind. This is your space to pause, reflect, and take in Agra’s grandeur—slowly, soulfully.
