At 6.30 in the morning there is dark outside. We queue outside the entrance gate and wait for sunrise, so that we can admire Taj Mahal in all its beauty. It has been described as an architectural jewel and I can see why; unlike the other Indian buildings we have seen and admired Taj Mahal is compact, so that even from a short distance it can be seen and admired as as a complete structure. Each part is complete in itself and together they seem inseparable. We walk around, undisturbed, take photos, and more photos, at sunrise and after, this view and that, the perfect geometric decorations, ....and then walk out to return to dusty, noisy India.
