The Taj certainly lived up to my expectation.
Note
Visiting the Taj Mahal, Agra
We were first in line when we arrived at the west gate ticket office at 5:40am. After another "Sir - I have no change" conversation at the ticket desk, we moved to another queue closer to the west gate. Just after 6:00am the gates opened, and we rushed to find the Taj before the sun came up.
I appreciated the un-spoilt view of the Taj, taking lots of pictures before the wave of tourists turned up to pollute the tranquil landscape.
Onwards to Delhi.
