Absolutely beautiful. 

 What an experience this was! My breath was taken away as we turned a corner and got to see the Taj Mahal for the first time. It really was magnificient, and after learning it's history, even more so. We went at dusk, and although it was cloudy, it was a spectacular sight and it wasn't as busy as I expected, so that made the experience even better! A must-do for any visitors to India. 

One word- HOT!

The Taj Mahal is an amazing piece of architecture and a beautiful building. Unfortunately we didn't make it to the sunset viewing, but being there for sunrise was absolutely worth it.

There’s so much said about the Taj Mahal, so many superlatives, so many poetic descriptions, and often, things are never as good as you hope they’ll be. But this was.

From the minute you board the electric bus to be taken to the gateway (no polluting vehicles are allowed within the vicinity of the Taj) there is a palpable sense of excitement.

Through the security gates, where any food, drink (and as my other half discovered to his horror tiny teddy bears) are confiscated, to the epic gate way.

Then we were there, admittedly it was still foggy to begin with . . . But it was still amazing!!!!!! It is hard to put into words how it feels to be stood in front of one of the most iconic buildings in the world.

Then the fog cleared and there it was in all its glory.

 Stunningly beautiful

Was in India in 2006 and had the chance to visit the Taj Mahal - a dream come true.  Truely an incredible experience.

I have been to Taj Mahal when i was 12 yrs old with my family. It was worth it. Although now I wish to visit it at full moon night. That would be very beautiful, but it looked great even during day. It was very beautiful.

Not my photo, will upload mine soon :)

The Taj Mahal is very beautiful.

Seen the magnificence of the Taj Mahal and all its splendour, experienced this with my husband sister and brother inlaw

Last summer I went to India. And when someone goes to India, one cannot skip the Taj Mahal. So I went in the early morning when the sun came on. It was quiet and beautiful! Especially when the sun shined on the spectacular building! 

Being an Indian, the experience is totally different. I was lucky to have a foreigner visiting Taj Mahal with me and I got to see it from a totally different perspective.

The monument in itself is so grand that you cant look anywhere else once you are inside the gates. The very fact that it was constructed out of love is amazing! A love that strong must be worth experiencing for sure.

All in all, words arent enough to describe the place - its way too beautiful and must be experienced by everyone at least once!

Seeing the Taj for the first time gave me goose bumps.  Standing there looking at it was amazing.  Then walking around on the marble was really beautiful!  The trip there however, was one long trek!  Ugh.  Glad I did it though!  :)
