Know the Rules Before You Go
Tripods are generally not permitted inside the Taj Mahal complex — most current visitor reports confirm this, though policy can vary by season, so ask your guide on arrival rather than assuming. Photography is not allowed inside the mausoleum's interior at all; exterior and garden shots are fine. Commercial or professional shoots need prior written ASI permission arranged in advance.
The white marble bench on the central platform — made famous by Princess Diana's 1992 photograph — is the spot most visitors queue for; arriving at sunrise dramatically shortens that queue.
