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.

Mehtab bagh has a distinctive aura of its own, as it is away from the hustle bustle and noise of the city and the main Taj. The view was amazing and very clear. Maintenance needs to be looked into as I feel they can make it better than what it is now. Since it comes under the Agra municipality and not the Taj administration, it seems a bit neglected, but still one can enjoy complete solitude and excellent views of the Taj without the usual hundreds of milling crowds blocking that perfect pic of you and your loved ones. Do visit early morning to enjoy a peaceful experience.

Currently Other Monuments are closed on SAT Sun due to Covid Curfew. This is open. If you are unable to go to Taj. Take a look from here. 1km across Yamuna. Good View.

We have been to Agra many times but Mehtabbagh was a new find for us this year. It is like a most unpretentious and candid view of Taj. A quiet place from where one can soak in the beauty of Taj. Have to reach there by 4:30 as the entry stops by 5:45 pm. Online tickets available.

A quiet place for having a great view of the TAJ.
Best part is that you don't need to stand in long queues and there is no crowd when you are clicking pics :)

It’s a wonderful location to see the Taj Mahal. But despite having a valid ticket till 6 pm those running the show will throw you out about 40 minutes before so that you have to pay much more another locally run entry point nearby. This is A new racket here. No such restriction used to be placed before.

The grounds are super large and as you approach you get different, beautiful angles of the Taj Mahal. We came here at sunset with our tour group.

Viewing the Taj Mahal at sunset from across the river provides a different sensation than viewing it from the actual site. There is a mystical sense of peace and majesty- and quiet... This definitely gives you a full circle experience of the Taj Mahal - don’t miss it!

I believe that within this location is a circular terrace close to river, there appears to be some sort of ruins around it. Are you able to access it? Thanks

No, you cannot access either the circular terrace or the ruins below. The terrace is closed off. It was the king's prison at a time and still original jewels are there. Below that is the wall of the fort with three layers of what may look like ruins but were actually the security at the time. You cannot access either the terrace or the structures below.

People mentioned coming here at sunset but what time is last entry and what time does the place actually close? Thanks

I’m not sure there is an official time. We arrived a little before sunset (in December when days are shorter). Looks like they close the gates about a half hour before sunset and stop letting people inside. When we left around sunset, there were many people still there, appearing to be in no rush to leave. The guards simply opened the gate and let us out.

I will visit Taj Mahal in May 2018.
Can I see Taj Reflexion on the river?
thank you.

Off course yes, if river water is clean which is not mostly. Well, you can see the reflection of TAj in river only on moon light and that time entry to Mehtab Bagh is closed. So try other options too.

Is it possible to capture the reflection of Taj Mahal in the Yamuna river from this place (Mehtab Bagh). I am planning to visit the place in next few days. Your advise is highly appreciated.

I don't think so. The river is very low, I can't see any real chance for that.

Nooo.... just take a cab and he will drop you.
Agra is a small city, mac time to cross the city would be like 30 to 35 mins.

Is this a safe place to go?
MeenakshiGoyal

Safety: is always a precaution
It would adviseable to avoid very lonely places inside the garden
Try to walk with the crowd and at suitable timing, as very correctly said late evening should be avoided
