Taj Nature Walk Tour

When you hear Agra, you’ll automatically think of the magnificent monuments that dot the city. But there’s a little treasure hidden in the woods of Agra, offering you a chance to explore the Taj Mahal in a serene and somewhat offbeat way. Walk through the Taj Nature Park, an initiative of the Social Forestry Division of Agra, and experience the beauty of Taj from various angles and settings. Taj Nature Park is a beautiful place to visit along with the beautiful Taj Mahal. The place is right across the Taj Mahal and is only a walk away. The stone pathways will lead you there and you will find yourself in the lap of nature while viewing Taj Mahal in the background. The chirps of the birds and the fluttering of butterflies give you an out of the world feeling and take you close to the nature.

The area is rich in flora and fauna. Red vented bulbul, grey hornbill, paradise flycatcher, golden oriole, tree pie, Indian flame backed threetotoed wood pecker, ringed dove, common green pigeon, blue rock pigeon, parakeet, white breasted kingfisher, hoopoe, Indian cuckoo etc can be seen easily. The dancing peacocks around peahens in the background of Taj create a divine ambience. Python is the biggest in this area. It is often seen in the search of prey while at times hanging from the trees. Other important reptiles are rat snake, cobra and monitor lizard.
