Taj Mahal night viewing during the full moon — things to do in Agra

Thirty minutes of moonlit views of the Taj Mahal from a special platform on the full moon night and the nights before and after.

On five nights each month, the majestic Taj Mahal opens its doors for a rare nighttime viewing. During the full moon and the two nights before and after, visitors can appreciate the monument illuminated by moonlight — a striking contrast against the white marble. This exclusive experience offers about 30 minutes to soak in the serene atmosphere from a designated viewing platform.

The scheduled viewing dates for 2026 and 2027 are specific, so planning ahead is essential. Prepare for an enchanting moment away from the daytime crowds, allowing the emotional depth of this iconic structure to truly resonate in the tranquil night.
