What the "Baby Taj" Actually Is
Itmad-ud-Daulah, nicknamed the "Baby Taj," was built by Mughal empress Nur Jahan as a tomb for her father, Mirza Ghiyas Beg (who held the title Itimad-ud-Daulah). Its white marble and intricate pietra dura inlay work are widely considered a design precursor to the Taj Mahal, built decades before it. It sits a short drive from the main Taj Mahal — close enough to add to the same day without a major detour.
2026 reference entry fees run around ₹30 for Indian/SAARC nationals and roughly ₹310 for other foreign nationals, though these are set by the ASI/Agra Development Authority and can change — confirm current pricing before you go. Foreign visitors should also budget for the separate ADA toll that covers same-day entry across several Agra monuments.
