Mehtab Bagh
This 25 acre garden
constructed during 1631 to 1635 alongside the beautiful Yamuna river is one of
the most beautiful baghs (gardens) in the city that is a hit among the locals
and the tourists alike. The garden is a hotspot because of its exquisite location
parallel to the ever majestic Taj Mahal. The garden is also called as the
Moonlight garden as it gives a splendid view of the Taj in the moonlit nights.
The Garden is not only known for its location but is also loved for being an
exhibition of the Mughal Empire’s grandeur. From the fragrance of the varied
species of flowers to the cool breeze flowing over the adjacent river make the
visitors go crazy. Recently, archaeological excavations have unearthed an
octagonal tank which has 25 fountains and a bardari on the east. History and
beauty come together beautifully to create a visual feast here, with an aura of
resounding peace.
