The Taj Mahal in Agra reopened this morning with strict coronavirus safety guidelines after being shut for tourists for over six months. The Agra Fort too reopened today.
Both world heritage sites were closed since March 17 due to the pandemic.
All safety guidelines issued by the centre will have to be followed while visiting the mausoleum and the fort, which include social distancing and sanitising of hands, Vasant Kumar Swarnkar, superintending archaeologist of the Archaeological Survey of India (Agra circle), had said in a statement to the media.
Masks are mandatory to enter the monuments and all tickets must be purchased online. Ticket counters will not be open," Mr Swarnkar said.
