    If you’re staying at Hotel Taj Resorts, you’ll be close to the viewing deck. The garden stays quieter from 5 am until about 6 pm; after that the crowd swells but still stays below the main monument. The early morning light is especially gentle for photographing the Mughal layout, so I’d suggest arriving right at opening for a calm walk. If you prefer a later slot, the 24 hour window still offers a quieter view before the peak sunset rush.
