Home of the Taj Mahal. It is known as, “symbol of love.” The ruler of that period built this as a gift for his wife who had died. It took 22 years to complete.

At the Taj Mahal, we had a great tour guide, Pervis, who took tons of pics of Jason and me. He was hilarious because he kept shooing people out of our shots. He’d scowl and give them stern looks if they didn’t move immediately. LOL.

After our Taj Mahal tour, we landed in the obligatory sales scheme. Everyone has an angle… But, we saw how they produced the marble and gem inlay (precious and semi-precious) similar to that at the Taj Mahal. We ended up purchasing one keepsake marble table there, which is stunning.

We ended the day by getting drinks at Hotel Amarvillas, a gorgeous 5 start hotel with an unobstructed view of the Taj Mahal at sunset. Sleeper train to Khajuraho tonight…
