“I am from Melbourne, Australia. I have been to the Taj Mahal before, but not to this place (Mehtab Bagh Taj View Point). I think it is a wonderful spot,” said a foreign tourist.
Another tourist from Jammu and Kashmir said, “It is a good thing for tourism. It is a dream come true moment if I get to see the Taj Mahal during the night.”
Earlier this month, the Agra District Administration had installed two air purifier machines at the gates of the Mughal era monument Taj Mahal to combat air pollution in the region.
