| Taj Mahal at Sunset |
At 7:30 am, the sun is beginning to pierce the mist that shrouds the Taj Mahal. It is impressive although the pollution is clouding it so bad you can't get a good photo.; the top dome is all that can be seen. The view of the Taj is the best in town at the Shanti Lodge's rooftop cafe.

| View from across the Yamuna River |
Unfortunately I have arrived on a Thursday night and the Taj is closed on Friday! Oh well, I will go across the river to get photos at sunset on those white marble domes.
My driver, Saleem, and I went to see some of the local sights, had lunch at the Green Cafe (lovely) and made our way across the river to get some good shots. The view from the north bank was brilliant although the fog was still casting a veil on the white marble domes. I just can't express how beautiful and regal it is! Tomorrow I get to see inside!
