Taj Mahal India

Approaching Taj Mahal

One can approach the Taj from three different directions: The Eastern entrance is often used by tourist groups arriving by coach from Fatehabad Road.

The Southern entrance is from the shops, around the Taj. The Western entrance is ideal for those arriving by car or cycle-rickshaw from the Agra Fort.

Exterior Taj Mahal

The Taj itself stands on a raised platform. The four minarets at each comer of the plinth provide a perfect balance to the tomb.

The minarets measure 41.6 Ih high and each has a deliberate slant outwards so that in an unlikely even! of an earthquake, they would not fall on the tomb but away from it.
