Yes, sunrise is genuinely the best time to visit the Taj Mahal. The biggest advantage is the crowd early-morning visitors get a much calmer experience than those arriving later in the day. The soft morning light also makes the white marble look more beautiful, and the cooler temperature makes walking around the monument much more comfortable.

For a Delhi to Agra one day tour, an early start is the best approach. Leaving Delhi around 4:30–5:00 AM lets you reach Agra near opening time and enjoy the Taj Mahal before the main rush begins. After your visit, you can easily cover attractions like Agra Fort and return to Delhi the same evening.
Of course, sunrise requires waking up early, but the experience is worth it. If you want fewer crowds, better photos, and a more peaceful visit, sunrise is the clear choice.
