My sincere thanks to @steemit-turkiye for organizing this contest. I like to share my holiday memories from 2017. After the Chandrasila trek at Uttarakhand, we visited Agra to view the famous Tajmahal. It was a marvelous experience.

To visit Tajmahal, international travelers need to fly to Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) at New Delhi. Agra can be reached by domestic flight / by train / by road from New Delhi. There are many hotels in Agra of different budget and travellers can choose accordingly. We stayed at Hotel Taj Khema - maintained by the Uttar Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation (UPSTDC). This hotel is at a distance of 50 meter from Tajmahal East gate.

Tajmahal remains open Saturday to Thursday from sunrise to sunset.
