Take a stroll around Mehtab Bagh, a Persian-style garden complex sitting directly opposite the Taj Mahal. Separated from the famous building by a river, the garden reflects the same idea that the spiritual resides in the symmetrical. This particular layout, called a charbagh, involves the division of the ground into four smaller parts with water features and walkways. The pleasant garden also offers a good view of the cultural wonder opposite, often with fewer people obstructing your photos than at the building's front. Take a look at our Agra trip itinerary app to schedule your visit to Mehtab Bagh and learn about what else to see and do during your holiday.

Great views of the Taj without any crowds. But the park has poor access. Parking is bit far, you might want to take a battery operated rickshaw. Park is poorly maintained. A wasted opportunity

Nice place . Building is beautiful and one must visit. On the bank of Yamuna river and it is calm view of river. Feel the garden should have flowers all around.

We went on a partially Cloudy day.. so the moon wasn't visible. The Taj view from here is best seen in moonlight. So I'd suggest you to visit on a full moon night. But then again, pollution in Agra so bad that there's smog engulfing the city almost always. So, i guess it's up to luck and Fate if you get seen the Taj in a moonlit setting.
